About Us

Our Purpose: The purpose of the CEA is to facilitate campus access for students with disabilities, chronic health or temporary limitations. Mission Statement: The mission of the Center for Educational Access is to lead University efforts in facilitating an inclusive and accessible environment for students with disabilities through innovative practice, informed educational discourse, exceptional accommodation provision, and collaborative programming. Philosophy of Access: Our philosophy is to provide an environment in which students are encouraged to develop independence, the ability to self-advocate, and knowledge of resources that will enable them to take advantage of opportunities available in the modern world. The Center for Educational Access (CEA) provides services directly to students with disabilities, but also to the community at large in order to maximize the accessibility of all the programs and activities of the University.
