EQUAL OPPORTUNITY STATEMENT AND ACCOMMODATION FOR DISTRICT STUDENTS AND EMPLOYEES
The Seattle Community College District VI is committed to the concept and practice of equal opportunity
for all its students, employees, and applicants in education, employment, services and contracts, and does
not discriminate on the basis of race or ethnicity, color, age, national origin, religion, marital status,
sex, gender, sexual orientation, Vietnam-era or disabled veteran status, or presence of any physical, sensory,
or mental disability, except where a disability may impede performance at an acceptable level. In addition,
reasonable accommodations will be made for known physical or mental limitations for all otherwise qualified
persons with disabilities. (SCCD Policy 201)
Americans with Disabilities Act
Each of the colleges offers consultation to faculty, staff, and classified employees of the college for the
purpose of designing accommodations that provide equal access to otherwise qualified students.
To be eligible for disability-related services, students must have a
disability as defined by the
Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA)
and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Under the ADA and Section
504, a person has a disability if he or she has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or
more of the major life activities (walking, standing, seeing, speaking, hearing, sitting, breathing, and taking
care of oneself).
