'''Finding.''' Powell responded to the reporting student's accommodation advocacy by stating that students do not create their own schedule with this faculty-led model and that Professor Frazier would ensure the clinical experience is accommodated appropriately, framing the request as schedule creation rather than accommodation enforcement. The reporting student corrected that he never claimed to make his own schedule and was only flagging that the schedule exceeded eight hours.

'''Evidence.''' Powell: students do not create their own schedule with this faculty-led model; Professor Frazier will ensure the clinical experience is accommodated appropriately. The reporting student: I never claimed to make my own schedule.

'''Reported statement.'''
<blockquote>students do not create their own schedule with this faculty-led model.</blockquote>

'''Standards.''' ADA and Section 504: enforcing an approved accommodation is a legal right, not an attempt to create a personal schedule; mischaracterizing it as such signals a misunderstanding of the institution's accommodation obligations. Lead: {{HU|HU-135}}.

'''Impact.''' Framing accommodation enforcement as improper schedule creation discourages advocacy and signals that clinical-placement leadership may not fully understand its legal obligations.

'''Notes.''' Sub-issue of {{HU|HU-135}} (lead). Split 2026-06-06.
