MATH POLICY FOR STUDENTSWITH PHYSICAL OR LEARNING DISABILITIES
Students with properly documented disabilities will be identified through the Office of Disability Services. The Academic Advisor responsible for Disability Services will meet with the student and provide an overview of the available services. The student will take the Franklin mathematics placement test with accommodations to fit the student’s disability, as determined by the Office of Disability Services in cooperation with the mathematics department. The student will then be placed into a class, preferably with an instructor who has had training in dealing with students with learning and physical disabilities, and will receive appropriate accommodations for the disability. Accommodation may include one or more of the following: testing in the Student Learning Center, extended time for testing, a test reader, or modification of the requirements of the course by the instructor with the approval of the Mathematics Lead Faculty.
If the student fails the math course one time, he or she will meet with the Mathematics Lead Faculty to discuss alternatives such as repeating the course or taking an alternative course. Substitutions for course requirements in the major will have to be approved by the appropriate Program Chair.
PROCESS FOR STUDENT CONCERNS
Students are encouraged to act on problems, complaints and grievances in a constructive manner. In general, matters dealing with classes, instructors, administrators, parking, food services and policies and procedures should be discussed directly with the persons involved or with the person in charge of that area. Students seeking assistance in identifying the appropriate channel are encouraged to consult with their Academic Advisor. Anonymous reporting of an incident or concern may be completed through MySafeCampus at
www.mysafecampus.com.
For concerns of an academic nature, refer to the “Academic Standards” section. For concerns of a non-academic nature, refer to the Student Code of Conduct.
STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS
Student organizations at Franklin University are an excellent way to extend learning beyond the classroom, meet students, and make valuable career contacts. Franklin University recognizes organizations that are professionally based and have direct linkages to majors offered. Leadership, planning evaluation, and team building are skills that students can learn and practice through these organizations’ activities. Student organizations are funded through their own fund-raising efforts and a yearly budget for officially registered groups. For a list of current student organizations at Franklin, visit www.
