Due to emerging precautions regarding COVID-19 UNM-Gallup is putting the following preventative measures in place:
The UNM-Gallup Accessibility Resource Center will be modifying our in-person contact with students, staff and faculty. ARC offices, labs and study rooms will be closed until further notice. However, the ARC Accommodations Specialist will operate remotely; student meetings can take place by email, telephone, Face-Time, or Zoom. Inquiries may be sent via email to Michaela Henry at mchenry25@unm.edu or telephone / text message at 505-862-9389.
Should you require specific adaptive devices, textbook services, or an adjustment in accommodations please email me, and include your telephone number if you wish to speak with me. During this time additional in-person services, including individual proctoring, will be unavailable as our primary focus will be supporting student accommodations as courses are transitioned to alternative delivery methods. Please stay healthy and safe. Thank you.
Our Mission
The Accessibility Resource Center recognizes individuals with disabilities as an integral part of a diverse community and is committed to the provision of comprehensive resources to the University community (faculty, staff, and students) in order to create equitable, inclusive, and practical learning environments.
How do I begin?
If you were using classroom accommodations while you were in High School, you may have an Individualized Education Plan, or I.E.P.
Please ask your High School Office to email to the student /student’s family the signed version of the IEP, and that way the student and/or student’s family can email it to us.
Our hope is to provide a smooth transition into your college experience.
