Support services are available for students who have visual, hearing,

educational opportunities. Specialized software, adaptive equipment,
classroom accommodations, and oral interpreting are examples of the support
services offered. DMACC employs a special needs coordinator to work with students to
develop and coordinate services based on individual student need. Any
student with a disability who requires reasonable accommodations to

Additions to Class List: Students can add a class in the fall 2007 semester until noon September 1st, the spring semester 2008 until noon on January 12th , the summer semester 2008 until noon on June 4th .

Instructors do not have to grant permission to a student to add their classes after the official “add class” cutoff date and time.
Faculty should check their official class roster to make sure that the student has followed through with officially registering in the course by turning in the add slip. If the student’s name doesn’t appear on the official class roster, then the student should be directed to the Registration Desk (front desk) to complete the add process.
