In accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, “The Civil Rights Act” for the people with disabilities, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the College adheres to the law that states in part that: “No otherwise qualified individual ... shall, solely by reason of his/her disability, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal assistance.”
