Philosophy

The purpose of the Special Resource Center (SRC) is to facilitate academic success for students with disabilities by providing equal access to educational opportunities in an integrated campus setting and to appreciate that each student brings a unique set of experiences to the community college.

Participation in the Special Resource Center is voluntary. Students who choose to identify themselves to the SRC and qualify for services will work with staff to determine appropriate and reasonable academic accommodations for identified limitations. Students are encouraged to use our services for full integration into all aspects of college life. An array of support services are available for students with disabilities that affect one or more major life functions. Each student will have the benefit of an individual approach to accommodate their needs. There are many support services and various specialized devices to facilitate the process of reasonable classroom accommodations.
