A small group of students staged a walkout at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh this week, accusing the university of discriminating against people with disabilities.
Students said the university is violating the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
According to the university, the number of staff serving students with disabilities was cut by half, from eight people to four. Students said requests for accommodations are now being delayed or denied, resulting in poorer academic performance because they can’t get the help they need.
