Dear Professor Rushinek,
There is a student with a disability enrolled in your ACC306 FG class. Due to
the nature of this student's disability, a reasonable accommodation is a set of
class notes. The Office of Disability Services has attempted to recruit a
volunteer note-taker for this student. As of this date, we have not been able
to recruit a student from this class to share notes. The University of Miami is required to provide this accommodation to the student under ADA law.
To facilitate this accommodation we need your assistance. It would be helpful
if you could identify a student from the class who is doing well and might be
willing to share a copy of his/her own class notes. We ask that you speak
privately with the potential note-taker. To preserve confidentiality, do not
identify the disabled student. If the student agrees to provide a copy of class
notes, you may refer the student to the Office of Disability Services at (305)
284-2374, located in the Academic Resource Center on the second floor of the University Center. We will then provide instructions to the volunteer note-taker.
If, for some reason, you are not able to identify an appropriate student from
this class, perhaps you might be willing to share some of your personal notes
or identify a student from another section or a previous class that might be
able to help in this situation.
Please do not hesitate to contact the note-taking coordinators at extension
2374 or by e-mail at disabilityservices@miami.edu if you have any questions or
concerns about this matter. Thank you very much for your help.
Sincerely,
Mykel Mangrum Billups
Director
Office of Disability Services
