Washington Administrative Code › Title 172 - Eastern Washington University › Chapter 172-135 - Mandatory Medical Leave of Absence and Return › Section 172-135-010 - Purpose

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
Eastern Washington University is concerned about the health,
				welfare, and safety of all of its students. To promote an educational
				environment where all students can be successful, it is necessary for the
				university to engage with students whose ability to function successfully or
				safely as students is compromised. In such circumstances, the university may
				encourage a student to take voluntary leave. However, when a student's behavior
				renders the student unable to effectively function in the residential or
				educational community without harming him/herself, others, or unduly disrupting
				the university community, the dean of students may, after a careful and
				collaborative review, place a student on mandatory medical leave of absence in
				accordance with the procedures set forth in this chapter.
This process is only considered in rare situations when other
				options have been utilized and considered. A mandatory leave of absence is not
				the preferred option when addressing students' health, welfare, and safety. Any
				assessment or action taken under this policy will be based on legitimate safety
				concerns and not based on speculation, stereotypes, or generalizations about
				individuals with disabilities.

				necessity. The primary foci of the essential function requirements is the
				ability to learn, retain information, exhibit self-mastery, and demonstrate

			 evidence, to ascertain: The nature, duration and severity of the risk; the
			 probability that the potential injury will actually occur; and whether
			 reasonable modifications of policies, practices, or procedures or the provision
			 of auxiliary aids or services will mitigate the risk; or
(iii) Is so severely disruptive as to
			 directly and substantially deny or limit another's ability to work, study,
			 participate in, or benefit from the university's programs or
