Welcome to Hot Topics! Gabrielle Crichlow continues the conversation with Dan Jordan about how to get disability accommodations in college.
In this episode, the host (Gabrielle Crichlow) and the returning guest (Dan Jordan) engage in a thought-provoking discussion on the process of obtaining accommodations and the significance of early planning for students with disabilities. Jordan, a passionate advocate for inclusive education, shares his expertise in helping students navigate the college application process and secure the necessary accommodations. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the individualized nature of accommodations, as they are tailored to each person's specific needs, classes, and major. Throughout the podcast, Jordan sheds light on the step-by-step process involved in requesting accommodations. From selecting the right college to locating the accessibility office and initiating contact, he provides valuable insights on how to navigate this often complex journey. Jordan stresses the need for proactive action, urging students to pursue accommodations as soon as they are accepted to a school. One key aspect highlighted in the podcast is the fact that receiving accommodations does not obligate students to attend a particular institution. Jordan empowers students by emphasizing their right to choose whether or not to utilize accommodations based on their individual needs and preferences. By sharing his knowledge and experience, Jordan aims to empower students with learning disabilities and mental health issues, equipping them with the necessary tools and information to thrive in college. The podcast serves as a valuable resource for both students and educators, providing practical insights into the process of accommodating students with disabilities in college.
