Assistive listening devices, recording devices, and held-held media devices can be checked out by making an appointment with Disability Services. Any equipment loaned by Disability Services to a student will result in a hold being placed on the student’s account if the college deems the equipment to be lost, damaged, or destroyed. If the item is not returned the college will assess the replacement cost by adding it to the student’s bill and placing a hold on the student’s account.
