This is a collaborative process between the DRC and the student, and when needed, with faculty.
The DRC believes that disability is an aspect of diversity that is integral to our society and to the UA Little Rock campus community. The DRC also believes that creating and maintaining usable, equitable, inclusive and sustainable learning environments is a shared responsibility of the campus community. Designing learning environments with usability in mind benefit all students at UA Little Rock. The ultimate indicator of our success is when students with disabilities can access their environments as seamlessly as do non-disabled students.
The DRC strives to work proactively with the campus on accessibility issues by serving on many committees, and by doing presentations to colleges and departments across campus on good course design and accessibility issues.
