Each year attorney Jeanne Kincaid returns to PTI to provide attendees with the latest legal news from proposed regulations to agency and court decisions to assist campuses in keeping abreast of this ever-changing landscape. By June of 2014, perhaps the U.S. Department of Justice will issue proposed regulations governing access to the web. Attorney Kincaid will highlight other trends including deaf services, from captioning obligations to a jury verdict in favor of a medical student with hearing loss. As campuses attempt to develop protocols to adapt to legal mandates with service and assistance animals, Attorney Kincaid will highlight some of the issues these requirements are posing for college campuses. The session will include an analysis of recent rulings addressing students who present a danger to themselves in which Attorney Kincaid will offer participants tips on how campuses might address this increasing challenge. And of course, bring your accommodation template so we can examine what exactly your office may be committing your campus to do. Anticipate another lively and entertaining series!
