Academic Access & Disability Resources

The Academic Access and Disability Resources Office (AADR) serves all students who seek academic support, disability services, and inclusion in our Davidson community.

The AADR Office is part of the Student Life Division and collaborates with the John Crosland, Jr. Center for Teaching and Learning by performing two functions. First, we provide academic support to students through individual coaching, workshops, and small-group work, enabling them to master effective academic strategies and best utilize available resources.

Second, we support students with disabilities and those who suspect a disability work with other offices and departments across campus to provide equal access to the college's services, programs, and activities.

An emerging functional area of AADR is to engage the campus community in diversity, equity, and inclusion work as it relates to students’ disability identities. We provide programming and support initiatives throughout the year and individual support to students as needed.

AADR staff offices are physically located in the E.H. Little Library in the John Crosland, Jr. Center for Teaching and Learning.

AADR provides students in need of academic support with skills and resources that can improve their academic performance.

AADR shares the responsibility of accessibility with other college offices by working closely together and striving to make academic courses, course content, services, programs, and facilities accessible to every student.
