Classroom Relocation
Because of the age and architectural design, some of the campus buildings, or portions of them, are not accessible to students with mobility impairments. To ensure that classes and laboratories on campus are accessible, UDSS works with the Room Scheduling Office to move classes to accessible locations when necessary.
Inaccessible locations on campus include:
- Merica Hall: (MH) 103 and all upper floor offices
- McWhinnie: rooms on all upper levels
- History: basement and 2nd floor rooms
- Geology: room 216
- Half Acre: upper floors
Students who need to access faculty or department offices on these floors are encouraged to schedule meetings in more accessible locations (first floor meeting rooms, the Union, etc.).
Students who need accessible classrooms are encouraged to:
- Request and take advantage of Priority Registration which may provide a wider choice of classroom locations;
- Review class schedule with your UDSS coordinator to ensure that chosen classes are accessible;
- Request the assistance of your UDSS coordinator to have inaccessible classes relocated.
Early intervention with problems of classroom accessibility will improve the chances of simple changes. Be sure to contact your UDSS coordinator well before classes begin, or as soon as you have registered, to address any classroom relocation issues.
