Abstract | Differences between the Rehabilitation Act (1973) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (1990) (ADA) with respect to "reasonable accommodations" in academic settings are examined. Development of the meaning of reasonable accommodation in case law is chronicled, and ways in which the ADA may expand the meaning are explored. College and university responses to such requests are also discussed. (Author/MSE) |
