Students are encouraged to resolve concerns by first contacting DRS to discuss their issues. It is in everyone's best interest that disputes over reasonable accommodations for students with disAbilities be settled as quickly, and as informally, as possible. This Institution also has in place a more formal procedure, whereby students may lodge a complaint or grievance with the Institution.

However, anyone who believes there has been an act of discrimination by the University on the basis of disAbility, against any person or group, may file a complaint with:
