Resources for Faculty and Staff
The Disability Resource Center (DRC) at Cal Poly is committed to creating an accessible university community where students with disabilities have an equal opportunity to fully participate in all aspects of the educational environment. We cooperate through partnerships with students, faculty, and staff to cultivate student learning and success.
The DRC has an automated, on-line form for processing student requests for accommodated course exams. Find out how it works.
The Disability Resource Center has compiled a list of Ten Things Faculty Should Know about Students with Disabilities. In addition, the following resources may be of assistance:
- The Faculty Room: a space for faculty and administrators at postsecondary institutions to learn about how to create classroom environments and academic activities that maximize the learning of all students, including those with disabilities
- First Aid for Seizures
- Sign-Language Interpreter Request
- Syllabus Statements
- Teaching Tips
- Test Accommodations FAQ
