Such information will be provided upon receipt of a written release from the student. The Office of Career Services provides assistance to all students and does not discriminate on the basis of disability. Students who believe that an employer using the services of the OCS has discriminated on the basis of disability should bring that to the attention of the Assistant Dean for Career Services or the Associate Dean for Student Affairs. Such counseling is confidential and is not part of the student s official record. Students should be aware that while reasonable accommodations are available for most disabilities, all students will be held to the same academic performance standards.
Law school is stressful.
Some stress-related problems, including, but not limited to, fear of public speaking, exam anxiety, or chronic lateness, will not be considered to be disabilities justifying accommodation. A student with a physical disability must provide professional verification certified by a licensed physician, psychologist, audiologist, speech pathologist, rehabilitation counselor, physical therapist, occupational therapist, or other professional health care provider who is qualified in the diagnosis of the disability. The verification must reflect the student s present level of functioning in the major life activity affected by the disability. The student shall provide the verification documents to the Associate Dean for Student Affairs. The cost of obtaining the professional verification shall be borne by the student.
