We've Moved Back!
Disability Services has moved back to our permanent suite in SC 181. Stop by to say hi and see the new space!
Accommodate App
Disability Services is piloting a new support application for students and faculty called Accommodate. You can currently access the test version of the app through eWeber. Students may schedule appointments, request letters, or verify their decision status. Faculty have increased tools to track accommodations by student and course. Contact us if you’d like to learn more or join the pilot.
Accessible Content
Everyone plays a role in improving accessibility and complying with the law. If you create digital content (websites, Canvas courses, social media posts), please make sure it is accessible for all users. Visit the new Accessibility website for support.
Parking
Weber State parking passes are required to park on campus, including disabled parking stalls. If you have a disability parking permit, contact Parking Services for information on getting a disabled parking permit.
Disability Services provides services and accommodations to qualified students with disabilities attending or planning to attend Weber State University.
Information for Students
Student Stories
As the 2020–2021 academic year begins at Weber State University, twin brothers, both legally blind, will continue to inspire others as they live in pursuit of the mantra, “Go big or go home.”
Armand and Antonio Berry were born premature and are survivors of shaken baby syndrome at the hands of their biological father. The brothers’ retinas were damaged when they were shaken as infants.
Maria Rios Cabrera, a senior with a double major in mechanical engineering and economics and a minor in math, has a passion for helping students with learning disabilities.
“Having a disability doesn’t make you dumb or less valuable as a human being. In fact, it makes you a more well-rounded person, because you view the world differently, you can adapt really quickly, and you can connect with people in a way that other people can’t.”
A sophomore at Weber State, Brodee Kendrick is active in student leadership, works on campus, and is about to earn his associate’s degree. It’s a stark contrast from his childhood, when Kendrick struggled in school due to anxiety, dyslexia and A.D.H.D.
“I always associated school with hard things and uncomfortable feelings, so I was fine with the idea that high school would be my highest degree,” he said.
