Responsibilities for Other Students Students with disabilities have priority for accessible workstations in public computer labs. If there are other computers available, please do not use the accessible workstations. If a lab consultant asks you to move to another computer to accomodate a student with a disability, please be understanding. The consultant will try to give you as much advance warning as possible in the case of a crowded lab, but if there are a lot of computers available, you may be asked to switch on very short notice. Please be aware that these rooms are reserved for students with disabilities only.
Most labs require students to check out keys to the alternative reading rooms.
If this is the case in your lab, make sure to follow the correct procedure for key check-out. This is important because it allows DRES to track how the alternative reading rooms are being used and continue to provide appropriate services for students on campus who have disabilities. The alternative reading rooms are reserved for students with disabilities. If you plan to use one of these rooms, make sure to bring your accomodation letter with you. Lab consultants have been asked not to provide access to students without accomodation letters, so you may be denied access if you do not have yours with you, even if your disability is visible.
