To help ensure timely addressing of concerns and situations, students should notify Arysta Sweat, Student Disability Services Coordinator, at arysta.sweat@liashapiro.com, of any concerns related to equal treatment or denial of accommodation requests no later than 30 days after the alleged infraction. This notification should include the student's concern or situation and include any relevant information that might assist the DRC in its investigation.

4. If resolution cannot be reached, the Student Disability Services Coordinator will file a report with the Vice President for Student Affairs (VPSA). The VPSA will review the facts of the allegation and consult with the appropriate college departments, administration, and faculty. Recommendations will then be made with the goal of resolving the conflict.
5.
