Requesting academic accommodations:

If you would like to request academic accommodations due to a disability, please contact the Disabled Resource Center , 146 Hahn Student Services, (831)459-2089(voice) (831)459-4806(TDD/TTY). They can authorize specific accommodations for you in CMPE173 on an Accommodation Request Form. Please present this form to me early in the quarter so that we can discuss the accommodations you might need for class. You will need to see me again at least three weeks before each exam to arrange for testing accommodations.
