The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Section 504/The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990
The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Section 504, provides the foundation for equal access for students with disabilities. Under the law, qualified individuals with disabilities are defined as persons with a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities. The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 furthers civil rights of persons with disabilities by mandating equal education opportunity. South Georgia Technical College complies with these laws to serve students with disabilities.
A person with a disability is any person who:
- Has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more life activities
- Has a record of such an impairment
- Is regarded as having such impairments
