This may require restructuring of materials, alternate methods for tests or completion of coursework, etc. Modification should not alter academic requirements, and the student will be expected to show competency in the course material. (2) Individual files are maintained to serve as the guidelines for a particular student during his/her educational term at Roane State Community College. Documentation from a qualified professional must be submitted by the student to the DSO prior to receiving accommodations. New and returning students with disabilities who have needs that require advance planning must participate in early registration every semester at least three weeks prior to the first day of classes. Determination of eligibility for accomodations will be made by Disability Services staff on a case-by-case basis by appointment. Advising must occur early or sooner during times when the college closes early due to holiday breaks. Sometimes certain accommodations will not be feasible and students need to be aware early enough to make decisions about whether or not to enroll in certain classes. Also the ordering of materials and/or equipment may take several weeks to receive. Student Procedures for Special Services To receive the special accommodations mandated in section 504 of the Vocational Rehabilitation Act, the learning and physically disabled are to meet the following guidelines: (1) Be identified as possibly learning, physically or emotionally disabled. Any of the following ways is acceptable: self-referral, instructor referral, counselor referral. Any disabled student requesting assistance should be referred to Disability Services. (2) Be verified through appropriate documentation as learning, physically or emotionally disabled. The type and degree of the disability may be confirmed by a number of appropriate methods. Appropriate guidelines for acceptable official documentation are detailed in the Disability Services Handbook: (a) High school record-IEP or resource classes as recorded on the high school transcript indicate diagnosis of a problem. A record of the diagnostic testing administered by school psychologist may be requested by the student and sent to Disability Services. (b) Office of Vocational Rehabilitation-Students who have undergone academic evaluation through the office of Vocational Rehabilitation may request that a summary of the diagnostic testing be sent to Disability Services. (c) Private agency, clinical psychologist or medical doctor-Students seeking the services of private agencies (i.e. clinical psychologist for diagnostic testing) may request that a summary of the results with recommendations be sent to Disability Services. (3) Documentation for learning, physical or emotional disabilities will be filed in Disability Services. Documentation should be no older than three years. Students with documented disabilities are encouraged to provide DSO with yearly updated documentation. Once the learning or physical disability is verified and documented and accommodations are requested, the student may receive special services from the College. The faculty works with Disability Services to appropriately accommodate a student’s disability without compromising the academic requirements of the curriculum.

For students to achieve their potential as well-rounded individuals, a broad-based activities program is essential. In addition, student involvement is imperative for effectively evaluating past programs and conscientiously planning future activities. Roane State integrates these two concerns through the sponsorship of various clubs and organizations, committees, publications, and academic and social activities. However, continued growth and development of the college and its students is largely dependent upon the discovery of new ideas and ways to combat student apathy and complacency. Roane State strongly urges each student to support, through participation in one or more campus activities, attempts to conquer the “There’s nothing to do” syndrome. Involvement not only benefits the college but also makes the student’s stay a more richly rewarding experience. For information regarding extracurricular activities contact the Coordinator of Student Activities. I. Athletics Roane State competes in men and women’s basketball, men’s baseball and women’s softball as a member of the Eastern Division of the Tennessee Junior College Athletic Association. In order for a student to participate in athletics, eligibility requirements of the National Junior College Athletic Association must be met. Any inquiries about athletics should be directed to the Athletic Director in the gymnasium. II. Intramurals Roane State conducts a diverse program of activities to provide students and staff the opportunity to participate in organized activities. The program does not require the intensified training and high degree of skill normally associated with varsity competition. An individual’s playing ability is not considered as important as the desire to enter into the true spirit of competition for the purpose of fun and relaxation. Participants, however, are expected to display good sportsmanship at all times. The intramural program includes physical activities such as flag football, basketball, and softball. The RSCC Intramural Coordinator is vested with the final authority and responsibility on matters concerning scheduling, rule interpretation, and eligibility. In addition, the Intramural Coordinator may take any other action deemed necessary to insure that all intramural competition is played within the intent of the rules and within the realm of good sportsmanship. General Eligibility Requirements include: 1) Participant must be a current student or staff member at RSCC. 2) Participant must not be actively playing, practicing, or working out with any varsity athletic team in that sport. Automatic ineligibility results whenever a player is listed on the official team roster or “dresses out” on the date of any Student Services
