(female interviewer) We're here with Suzanne Munson from Disability Services.
Suzanne, I was hoping you could tell us more.
(Suzanne) Sure. What we do here is
we provide one-on-one support for students with disabilities.
We meet with them, review their medical documentation,
and determine what kinds of academic accommodations
and supports they need for equal access
to the courses and programs here at Langara.
(interviewer) That sounds great. Could you give us some examples
of accommodations you've made in the past?
(Suzanne) Sure. For example,
a magnifier to read exams, books in alternate formats,
separate setting for exams, and note-taking assistance.
(interviewer) Awesome. So how do students get in touch?
(Suzanne) All they need to do is contact our office
for an intake appointment,
well in advance of their first semester.
But we welcome them to come in for a drop-in
for a quick question or a follow up.
(interviewer) Great. Thank you so much, Suzanne.
(Suzanne) You're welcome.
