Many students and staff with disabilities simply do not apply for accommodations. So when claims are made like "well no one else has ever needed this" or "this seems excessive, another student only needed x" they are way off the mark. 1/5
Oftentimes we need far more than we ask for, and we ask for only the things we absolutely NEED in order to scrape by, rather the things we could use to thrive in the system. Why? 2/5
