Example: Syllabus Statement from Elisa Abes
"I very much want all students to thrive in this course. If you need an accommodation in order to fulfill the requirements of the course, you are encouraged to contact [Student Disability Services]. Disabilities may be apparent or non-apparent, such as physical disabilities, learning disabilities, and psychological disabilities (mental health). I also know that disability is fluid and that the nature of disability sometimes changes throughout the semester. As such, you might not know all of your accommodation needs at the start of the semester. I hope that, to the extent possible, you will feel comfortable disclosing this information and discussing your disability/ies with me. I want to work against the stigma often associated with disability and the ways that higher education is ableist. It is your right to be successful in this course."
