HOW DO WE ACCOUNT FOR STUDENTS WITH SAS ACCOMMODATIONS?

SAS staff are working during regular business hours: Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Students or faculty can email sas@kent.edu to set up an appointment or to arrange a phone consultation. Faculty should continue using relevant accommodations, such as extended testing time.

I AM WORRIED ABOUT BEING ABLE TO ACCESS ONLINE MATERIALS BECAUSE I DON’T HAVE RELIABLE INTERNET ACCESS AT HOME AND/OR HAVE A LIMITED DATA PLAN. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

If you do not have the internet at home, please do the following: If you are at a regional campus please speak with your Dean first to see if there are options available to you from your technology team at your campus. If not, or if you are at the Kent Campus, the Division of Information Technology has a limited inventory of Internet Hotspots for students and faculty in need.
