Our Gee, Tommy, looks like VIEW you're famous now. Nab. nobody reads those things anyway. Committee fails to inform ~.---=-....,,, Ithaca College's Bias-Related Incidents Committee convenes 17 members of the college community every two weeks to discuss bias-relat­ ed incidents on campus. The committee, whose mission is to "educate and inform" the campus about such incidents, is doing a poor job at both. While some education is beginning to take place, the committee has far to go to achieve its mission. The committee can begin by offering more infor­ mation on its primary tool for informing the com­ munity-Bias Alerts. For example, flyers for parties at Semesters, Key West and the College Circle Apartments deco­ rate Ithaca College's residence halls, while Bias Alerts hang on walls in academic buildings. One set adequately informs the Ithaca College commu- nity, the other is vague and unhelpful.

j ttention I De icit Disorder Office supportive of disabled students

By Fred Topel Ithacan Staff Imagine taking a test in a large lecture hall. Every shuf!lc of paper, every tap of a pencil, every stroke of the dock is another distraction. This is what classes arc like for a student with Attention Deficit Disorder. ADD is a condition in which under-stimulation of the brain causes a person to seek additional stimuli. Any dis­ traction could claim his or her attention. For students with the condition, traditional learning and testing methods may be difficult or impossible. To help at Ithaca College, there is the Office of Academic Support for Students with D1sabilitie~. Run by Leslie Schettmo, the office handles all forms of learning disabilities. When a student has a documented case of Attention Deficit Disorder, Schcttino's office will contact his or her professors and request accommodations. The most com­ mon requests from ADD students arc un-timed tests and distraction-free environments for taking exams. "By and large, I would say that 95 percent of the . teachers not only comply with the requests, but . basically go beyond in terms of trying to accommo­ date students," Schcttino said. Schettino said that very few teachers refuse to comply with the office, because they arc legally obl1gatcLI to make accornmoda- doc- lions. urncnted However, ~omc students have had ~omc negative cases of ADD. experiences with teachers.
