Student Disability Services hosted a student and faculty recognition event to celebrate the achievements of UCF students with disabilities and faculty who demonstrated excellence in the area of academic accommodation.<\/p>\n
At the event, it was noted that 131 students registered with SDS had filed their intent to graduate for spring 2012, which is a record high. Pam Rea, director for SDS, commended faculty members who think globally by designing their courses to be accessible for all students. She also discussed the creation of a faculty\/student advisory board at SDS, so the concerns of students and faculty members could be voiced and addressed.<\/p>\n
New and exciting technology that is on the horizon for SDS was revealed including Knights Access, a computerized system for making accommodation requests, and DocSoft, which will improve UCF\u2019s system of producing closed captioned videos. SDS continues to make gains toward greater accessibility on campus.\u00a0<\/p>\n
