Do you support the continued funding of $4.94 (of the $4.94 collected, $4.14 goes to the program and $0.80 for Return to Aid) per undergraduate student per quarter and $4.36 (of the $4.36 collected, $3.56 goes to the program and $0.80 for Return to Aid) for summer quarter for the Disabled Students Program?
Pro Statements
The Disabled Students Program (DSP) is integral to ensuring that students with disabilities at UCSB have equal access to academic opportunities. Through a lock-in fee of just $4.94 from Associated Students, DSP provides vital academic accommodations for approximately 3,100 students with both permanent and temporary disabilities. These accommodations include note-taking assistance and proctoring services for exam accommodations - - essential resources that help level the playing field for students who might otherwise face significant barriers to their education.
Every dollar contributed through this lock-in fee directly supports the dedicated student-staff who partner with DSP to create a more inclusive campus environment. By reaffirming this fee, you are helping to foster a community of equity and opportunity, where students with disabilities are empowered to succeed alongside their peers. Your support is not just an investment in individual students, but in the future of a more inclusive and accessible campus.
We invite you to be a part of this transformative effort. Your contribution will have a lasting impact, ensuring that all students, regardless of ability, can continue to thrive at UCSB. Join us in making education accessible because when we support students with disabilities, we make UCSB inclusive for all.
