Chronic Illness 19h
Imagine forcing a student to withdraw from a course required for their major because you and your department failed to properly accommodate them 😃 I feel like I’m being treated like an issue. A problem. A nuisance. I’m so upset right now.

I don’t even know if I’m allowed to be upset, I feel like every part of this is my fault. I feel like they fail to understand my disability bc it’s not visible. I’m just so frustrated idk what to do

i went through this exact same thing a few weeks ago and i highly suggest talking to whoever handles accommodations and seeing if your university has someone who works in student advocacy or something. for the specific class i had to drop, they told me that it was required for my major but they weren't actually going to stop me from graduating if i didn't finish it.

I’ve involved someone who handled grievances for disabled students, but she didn’t really contribute much but tell me ‘if I feel like I’m being discriminated against, to file a report’ Unsure if any of this qualifies as discrimination imo
