This is an amazing opportunity to create meaningful change and develop professionally!

Hello Western Students,

If you, like me, are a student with a disability and you received the email from Accommodated Exams (copied below) saying that accommodated exams may start earlier than regular exams, and are concerned by the fact that your start time could change on the day of your exam, please let us know how you feel so we can elevate your voices to administration about this important issue. We, the Accessibility Committee, are here to advocate for you.

Please take this quick survey to let the administration know how you feel about this important issue: https://uwo.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bPptlfJI6RZmkUS
