Auxiliary Aids and Services for Students with Disabilities
In compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act, MCCTC does not discriminate against individuals in any protected class, including those individuals with an identified disability. As such, MCCTC shall work to provide persons with disabilities equal opportunity for participation through appropriate auxiliary aids and services.
U.S Department of Education, Office for Civil Rights Guidance:
As required under Section 504 and Title II, post-secondary institutions must offer students with disabilities with appropriate academic modifications, auxiliary aids and services to provide the individual with a disability an equal opportunity to participate in the institution program (U.S DOE, 2020).
MCCTC is responsible for making appropriate non-personal auxiliary aids available for general classroom use, unless provision of the aid would cause undue burden to the institution. (U.S DOE, 2020).
MCCTC is not responsible for providing personal services relating to individual academic activities. A student with a disability in need of a personal attendant or individually prescribed device holds the responsibility of acquiring and paying for those services (U.S DOE, 2020).
