Disability & Access Services has determined that Mr. Hemingway is a student with a disability and, on the basis of the diagnosis and supporting documentation, the following accommodations have been recommended: For Examinations: Time and one half to complete in-class examinations Permission to circle answers in test bookletExams in enlarged print In Class: Permission to audiotape lectures OR use of a note-taker Textbooks in alternative format (facilitated by Disability & Access Services) Boston University provides reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities that enable the student to compete equitably with his/her peers in meeting the academic standards and requirements of the University. The interests of the University and this student will be best served if you continue to demand the highest quality of academic performance and achievement in your courses. Accommodations, therefore, may need to be adjusted to meet the requirements of your course, as well as your methodologies of instruction or examination. The adjustment process is premised upon an open and productive dialogue between you and the student.
