asics 34 basics Counseling Services We understand that study abroad is not always an easy experience. In fact, sometimes it can be stressful. Your well-being is important to us, and staff members are always available should you need to talk. Please do not hesitate to stop by the office and tell us how you are doing. Should you need the assistance of a professional counselor, we can put you in contact with an Englishspeaking psychologist. For more information, please contact one of our Student Services Coordinators. Special Needs We want all students to have an experience in Spain that is as productive and as problem-free as possible. If you are a student with a special need, please let us know. We will do our very best to accommodate you. Limited Mobility CIEE and University Facilities: The CIEE study center is wheelchair accessible, as are the various facultades of the Universidad de Sevilla and the Universidad Pablo de Olavide. Should you have any problems with accessibility, please contact CIEE Resident Staff. You may also find it useful to contact El Servicio de Asistencia a la Comunidad Universitaria (SACU) in the Pabellón de Uruguay (Tel: 954-48-77-49). SACU is the office that oversees the quality of these services at the Universidad de Sevilla. Transportation in Seville: Seville has an extensive bus system with stops in all parts of the city. There is at least one bus on each route that is equipped for passengers with wheelchairs. Unfortunately, no specific schedule is available for wheelchair-accessible buses, so it is best to plan ahead and leave plenty of time to get where you are going. For late night travel and/or for greater convenience, there are specially-equipped vans available through Eurotaxi (954-47-60-60). When calling, make sure you specifically ask for a wheelchair accessible Eurotaxi. Transportation outside of Seville: The San Pablo Airport and Santa Justa Train Station have staff available to help those with physical disabilities. From Santa Justa, the AVE, Talgos, Alaris, and Euromed trains are all equipped with special facilities for those with limited mobility. Unfortunately, regional buses are not wheelchair-accessible. Wheelchair Rental: Wheelchairs can be rented and repaired at the following locations: • IDEO (only manual wheelchairs) Esq. Virgen del Valle 41011 Sevilla Tel: 954-27-04-65 Fax: 954-27-32-35 • ORTOPEDIA LA BUHAIRA Avenida de Eduardo Dato, 25 41018 Sevilla Tel: 954-53-46-16 Fax: 954-53-44-19 ortopediabuhaira@infonegocio.com • ORTOPEDIA ARGENTINA (only electric wheelchairs) Avenida República Argentina, 19 41011 Sevilla Tel: 954-27-20-46 Useful Websites: • www. valinet.org – Information on accessibility around Seville including museums, public areas, libraries, bars, restaurants, hotels, and much more. • www.vialibre.es – The site for Eurotaxi. This contains information on the types of vehicles available, as well as contact phone numbers for all of Spain. • www.miusa.org – Mobility International USA provides information to students with disabilities who want to study abroad. This includes stories and testimonials from past students. • www.cermi.es – Additional information on accessibility around Spain.
Visually/Hearing Impaired basics 35 La ONCE: La Organización Nacional de Ciegos Españoles (Tel: 954-46-11-92) has been an extremely important voice for the visually impaired in Spain. For detailed information on La ONCE, please visit www.once.es/new/home/. In 1988, La ONCE founded the Fundación ONCE, dedicated to helping people with other types of disabilities. Useful Websites: • www.diariosigno.com – Online news for the deaf in Andalusia. Special Academic Needs Tutors: CIEE provides help to anyone needing additional assistance with coursework while in Seville. Tutors are available to those who request them at no charge. Professors are typically willing to stay after class and review material for students who need extra attention. Other Academic Needs: Students with documented learning disabilities should be in touch with Resident Staff for assistance. We will help you arrange whatever services you might need. Psychological Needs Counseling Services: CIEE also has both English and Spanish speaking psychologists available for counseling sessions. See the section on counseling services for more information. basics CIEE ID Card All program participants will receive a student ID/emergency phone card from CIEE. Benefits of this student ID (carnet de estudiante) include reductions in museum fees, cinema tickets, concerts, trains, and more. This card also allows you to participate in extracurricular activities sponsored by the Universidad de Sevilla such as sports teams, choirs, cine club, etc. Reference Books and Libraries The CIEE Study Center has a limited number of reference books available for your use. Our library primarily includes secondary sources related to your CIEE classes– criticisms, history texts, dictionaries, and other works. Please speak to reception regarding access to books in the CIEE Library. The Student Services Office in the CIEE Study Center also has a number of travel guides available for student. You’ll quickly learn that Spanish professors expect you to expand your knowledge through supplemental reading. Although no professor will explicitly say, “Read such and such,” they do expect you to do independent reading. If your teacher mentions a book or author in class, you would be wise to read it. The bibliography listed in the course syllabus is also a good guide. Some books on the list may be hard to find. If you can’t seem to find Smith’s book X, read Jones on X instead. The primary objective is to expand your notes into mini-essays so that you can prepare for exams, which tend to be based on topics the professor has reviewed in class, rather than on the specific works assigned. Expect to make frequent use of university libraries if you want a better grade than the acceptable 5 (C in the U.S. system). Spanish professors expect work that demonstrates outside preparation and independent reading. There are several libraries located within and around the Universidad de Sevilla and the UPO. Each library has its own borrowing system and library card, so you will need to request permission to borrow books from each library you plan to use during your time in Seville. As is true in the U.S., if you do check out a book, you will be held responsible for returning the book on its due date or prior to leaving Seville. CIEE will hold final grades of students who fail to comply with the basic norm of library privileges. Please note that some university libraries do not permit visiting students to check out books. During the Intensive Session, Resident Staff will prepare a series of library tours. Please take advantage of these tours so that you know where the libraries are and how to obtain a borrowing card. Most of the libraries listed below also have study rooms if you are looking for a quiet place to study.
