Letter to the Editor: An Accommodations Policy is ridiculous

Editor:

While I do realize that we live in Utah, I would like everyone else to stop for a moment and realize that the students we are talking about are ADULTS.

This is not a concern over grade school children, or even secondary school children who are currently facing what seems to be a monthly threat of someone being caught with supplies in their possession to cause some harm to their friends, parents, or school.

I apply for accommodations and I have multiple disabilities, none of which I chose to have. I would be happy not to have to have to ask for these accommodations if I had not been given these added features that I have been blessed with. Don’t take what I am saying the wrong way, I’m not complaining about my disabilities. I just don’t think people need to whine about hearing a word in class that may just bother them. This is the real world. This is college, not kindergarten. We have real issues to deal with, let’s deal with them please.
