University policies ensure that persons with disabilities have access to all programs, services, and activities sponsored by the University. It is the obligation of the Lessee to make certain that the program it sponsors at the University is conducted in such a manner that it is accessible to all persons with disabilities. SSU residential facilities contain units accessible to people with disabilities. Acceptable rooms for persons with disabilities shall be provided at the same cost as those rooms contracted for by Lessee. To ensure that specific rooms are provided, please assess the needs of the participants with disabilities and inform the University a minimum of thirty (30) days prior to the event start date of any special requests. Upon request of the Lessee, the University can provide contact information for local businesses where accessible technologies and services can be obtained.
