Updates for Faculty - Spring 2024

Updates

Student Access and Accommodations

  • Students interested in classroom accommodations or faculty who have students who have disclosed a need for classroom accommodations can submit a request for accommodations by submitting the Request for Accommodations Form.
    • Once a student has received accommodations an accommodation notification will be sent to the faculty.
    • Faculty will be prompted to sign off on the accommodation notification so that the SAAS office can confirm that faculty has seen the accommodations.

Students who are in need of Temporary Medical Accommodations or accommodations due to pregnancy/family needs should submit a Temporary Medical Accommodation Request Form.

  • Temporary Medical Accommodations are for those medical needs that will require a note from a doctor. This form does not serve as an absence tracking system and Faculty should work with students who need to miss a single class.
  • Requested accommodations for both Covid-19 requests and Temporary Medical Accommodation Requests will be reviewed and approved through the SAAS office. Emails will be sent to both the student and instructor regarding the guidelines for the approved accommodations.
  • Any questions should be directed to Kori Folkerts at kori.folkerts@heartland.edu or 309-268-8251
