For students with documented dietary needs, Hesston College works with each student to determine reasonable accommodations when the student has filed a request with Disability Services Coordinator Jennifer Auge, and submitted adequate documentation as described below. The request for accommodation must be as specific as possible and normally must be accompanied by the Documentation of Disability form or an equivalent report (e.g. a copy of a medical diagnosis or dietician’s evaluation).

Students may be asked to supplement the documentation provided. Once a specific request for accommodation is received, staff will work interactively with students to identify one or more appropriate accommodations, which may or may not be the specific accommodation(s) requested. The college is required to provide reasonable accommodations that are effective, although they may not be the specific accommodations requested in all cases. The plan will be reviewed at the start of each semester.

Students are required to notify the director of dining services within six hours before missing a meal with menu substitutions. Students who repeatedly miss meals with menu substitutions may risk having less menu substitutions provided. In addition, unused special purchase food items may not be reordered. In
