| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Change 520 position (seasonal) into a part-time 20 hour support staff line to assist the OAS office with both adaptive technology and administrative assistant work. If not allowed to increase the hours as well as elevate the position requirements, the office will not be able to proctor exams (burden will be placed on the faculty to proctor the exams) due to the fact that the hours required to cover our office will go beyond what the 520 category allows.
Moreover, this is a multi-faceted office and the Office of Student Support Initiatives (SSI) is also housed there. This individual also serves as the administrative assistant for both OAS and SSI.

| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | The 520 (seasonal ten-hour a week) position already exists. However, the hours and the expertise needed to cover the Office of Accessibility Services go beyond what the seasonal 520 category permits. The most at risk students (first-generation, low-income, disabled, adult and evening students will be impacted if we cannot get an additional ten hours to upgrade the seasonal 520 position.
