The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA)

The federal law guarantees civil rights and protection from discrimination to persons with disabilities.  It basically makes it illegal to discriminate against someone on the basis of disability.  The ADA covers employment in the private or public sector, transportation, public accommodations, services provided by state or local government, and telecommunication relay services.

The law was passed in July 1990 and its purpose was to end discrimination against people with disabilities in areas of employment, education, public accommodations, the licensing of professionals, and other areas.  This law is generally thought to be as important for people with disabilities as was the Civil Rights movement of the 1960鈥檚 for persons who are considered minorities.  Colleges and universities that receive federal funds (such as Pell Grant monies) are also required to comply with a nondiscrimination law called Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.  The ADA upholds and extends the provisions of the earlier Section 504

Colleges and universities cannot discriminate in the recruitment, admission, or treatment of students if they receive federal funds.  What this means is that students with documented disabilities may request modifications, accommodations, or auxiliary aids which will enable them to participate in and benefit from all post-secondary educational programs and activities.  Colleges and universities are required to make the changes necessary to make sure that each academic program or activity is as accessible as possible by all students, disabled or not.
