In my previous column (January 2020), I provided some initial considerations for making sure your site encourages students to complete the disability services registration process, including that you should provide a time line to let students know how long it can take from start to finish. Besides making sure students know how things work, make sure your site makes them feel comfortable initiating and completing the process. Think about how it feels to students for whom all of this is new (and anxiety provoking).
