Equipment Check-Out Policy and Procedures
Disability Resource Services has a variety of adaptive equipment
used by qualified students for the purpose of academic access. If students
do not have their own equipment, DRS will provide auxiliary aids to an
eligible student on a loan basis per semester. DRS does not provide individually
prescribed devices or items of a personal nature.
DRS requests that students
handle the equipment with care and return it as soon as they have finished
using it. Such cooperation extends the life of the equipment, thus
allowing more students to benefit from this service.
Students
who borrow equipment must do so in accordance with the following policies
and procedures:
- Students must personally sign a check-out sheet for
the specific equipment they borrow each semester.
- Students must sign the
check-in section on the original check-out sheet when they return
the equipment.
- All equipment must be returned by the last day of final
exams each semester. If the student should need the equipment during
semester breaks for legitimate academic reasons, they must return
the equipment and renew the equipment loan.
- If the equipment is not
returned by the last day of final exams, DRS will notify the Bursar's
office to charge the student's account with the replacement cost
of the item. This amount will remain as an outstanding balance until
the equipment is paid for or returned to DRS. Outstanding balances
can result in grades and registration being placed on hold.
- If the
equipment is lost or damaged, the students are responsible for the
current replacement cost or repair cost. This fee will reflect as
an outstanding balance on the student's account until it is paid. Outstanding
balances can result in your grades and registration being placed
on hold.
