Narrative
Over the past five years, Student Accessibility Services (SAS) has experienced a rapid growth in registered students with disabilities needing testing with accommodations. These students often have accommodations that may include extended time, distraction reduced or isolated testing, use of assistive technology or the provision of a scribe or reader to ensure equal access to exams. Since 2010 the number of exams accommodated at the SAS has increased from 1895 to 3387, resulting in a 79% increase. To accommodate this increase, the SAS has converted every usable space into a testing area. This included the conversion of a conference room and a storage room to specialized testing areas. Privacy partitions were installed in these rooms and this has resulted in some areas that lack good visibility of security camera monitoring. As a result, 2 new cameras are needed to supplement the present system to ensure the appropriate level of student exam monitoring is maintained. In addition, a new switch box would be required to support the use of the 2 extra cameras. The cost of this project also includes all installation and network cabling fees.
