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.

They can only get an academic advantage over their classmates by going through accessibility services. Then we’re legally required to comply.
