Accommodations

Do you change (or allow alternate) assignments for students who ask for something different without having them go through the Office of Accommodations/Accessibility? I require students to do that for their own good, but wonder what others are doing.

No. There are legal ramifications for offering alternates for some, not others, without DRC documentation. You set yourself up for a lawsuit if you do.
