Previous Special Needs & ADA Notice, for PSC courses.
"Essential functions" of the course (ADA & Section 504 learning disabled) will include intensive reading; frequent presentations and discussion in class with attendant note-taking; writing thoughtfully under some pressure of time in class exams; and gathering a synthesis of materials for homework. These skills reasonably prepare you at introductory level for an eventual professional career in a field related to law or politics. For those professionally documented via the student counselling staff as genuinely "learning disabled" but "otherwise qualified," "reasonable accommodations" will be made.(To return to the syllabus you came from, click your browser's back button.)
