Equitable access to CSU Channel Islands programs, activities and services is a shared responsibility of all campus employees. DASS works collaboratively with faculty, staff and administrators to ensure an accessible and inclusive educational experience for students with disabilities pursuing CI's academic programs and activities. Active faculty collaboration in the implementation of academic accommodations is an essential part of the process. All faculty at CI with an assigned course load have access to the DASS Faculty Portal available on the MyCI webpage. This portal allows faculty easy access to view approved accommodations for each course section they are assigned to in an organized, understandable format.
