These procedures have been developed to protect the rights, health and safety of students, staff and faculty as well as to maintain an equitable learning environment for all Mott Community College students. There are times when a student may have a complaint or concern regarding the services rendered by the DisAbility Services office.

If a student with a disability feels they have not received accommodations that are appropriate, they must first consider:

1. ADA requires that accommodations be developed in a dialogue between the student with a disability and the Institution. At Mott Community College this is done with a DisAbility Support Specialist. Students may need to meet with their instructors as well.

2. Colleges are not required to provide the requested or preferred accommodation. They are required to provide reasonable, appropriate, and effective accommodations for disabilities that have been adequately documented and for which procedures for requesting those accommodations have been followed.

If the student with a disability feels they have followed the above, and have a legitimate complaint the first step is to speak with the Director of DisAbility Services. An appointment can be made by calling (810) 762-0399. However, a complaint regarding disability accommodations can also be filed with Mott Community College's ADA Compliance Officer. To do this, contact the Human Resource Department at (810) 762-0565.

If the complaint is not resolved the student should file a formal complaint by submitting a written complaint to the Director of DisAbility Services and/or the ADA Compliance Officer in the Human Resources Department. This complaint must include the reason for the complaint, related dates, and the student's signature. This document will be forwarded to the Executive Dean of Student Services for resolution.

If the student is still not satisfied and they have followed procedures listed above, a formal complaint can be filed through the Office of Civil Rights (OCR). Information for this process can also be obtained from the Learning Center/DisAbility Services or the Human Resources Department.

 

The formal grievance procedure outlined in the Student Handbook under Policies and Procedures are also available to students with disabilities.
