Conflict Resolution and Appeals
If you are dissatisfied with the academic accommodations recommended by the Learning
Support Services (LSS) Office, you should discuss your concerns with the Director
for LSS. If you are not able to resolve a problem at this level, you should
request an appointment with the Vice President of Academic Affairs 1.610.519.4520.
The University would like to address any problem situations internally; however,
you may file formal charges with outside government agencies at any time, if you
desire. The United States Office for Civil Rights (OCR) in the Department of Education
is the agency responsible for addressing complaints related to discrimination on
the basis of disability. Complaints must be filed within 180 days of the date of
the alleged discrimination. Since OCR's policies and procedures may change over
time, you should contact the regional office directly and immediately if you wish
to file a complaint of discrimination on the basis of disability. You may contact
OCR at: 1.800.421.3481.
