Special Services for Individuals with Disabilities

CSULB provides extensive support for students with disabilities through the Bob Murphy Access Center (BMAC), formerly known as Disabled Student Services (DSS). Located in the Student Success Center, BMAC serves over 1,300 students each semester, offering:

• Priority registration and classroom accessibility accommodations

• Equipment loans and specialized testing arrangements

• Learning disability assessments and academic advising

• Reader/note-taker recruitment, campus orientation, and faculty consultation

• Liaison services with the California Department of Rehabilitation

Faculty are expected to submit instructional materials in advance of each term, per the University Policy on Accessibility and Instructional Materials, allowing BMAC sufficient time to provide appropriate accommodations.

Technological and Instructional Resources

All classrooms used by the department are equipped with Smart Room panels, which include LCD projectors, laptop connections, and media playback. The department has secured additional projection cables and mobile devices, and all full-time faculty have access to laptops. Two mobile computer labs (funded through internal grants) are available for classroom use, notably in:

• REC 341: Program Evaluation

• REC 480: Philosophy of Leisure

Academic and Technical Support

• CSULB computer labs and a student-run help desk are available campus-wide, offering 7-day support.

• The College of Health and Human Services provides on-site IT support for faculty and staff.

• Students can access additional learning support through the Learning Assistance Center, which provides workshops, tutoring, ESL support, and test prep resources. Learning Assistance Center Website

These resources collectively ensure that the department can properly implement the curriculum and provide equitable access to learning for all students, including those with disabilities.
