All students with a disability, including distance learning students, are strongly encouraged to contact the ADA Compliance Officer Mr. Kenneth Pounders in Estes Hall at (662) 720-7207 or via e-mail to discuss their disability and appropriate accommodations.  Students must self-identify in order to receive accommodations.  Self-identification may occur through accessing a copy of the on-line NEMCC Disabilities Application or a hardcopy may be obtained from the Counseling Center in Waller Hall.  Students will be assigned to a Disabilities Counselor for development of a reasonable accommodation's plan.
