Assistive Technology
The Office of Disability Services provides students with access to a variety of assistive technology.
This includes text-to-speech software, scanners, speech-to-text software, Braille embossers and enlarging software. We will also loan students Livescribe pens, talking calculators, and other devices on a semester by semester basis. Registered students are welcome to use the Assistive Technology lab anytime while the office is open.
