> AFAIK if you need a different room then the disability has to be documented to the university with a medical letter, but I can't find that requirement at the author's uni page so maybe that uni doesn't. Just to add to this: I'm a TA and have been a lecturer a few times for courses at my uni. There is a whole registration process that the student and professor must go through. I'd estimate (in my limited experience) it's usually only 1 in 30-50 students who request extra accommodation. I suppose there are some that use it to take advantage. However, there are social implications of having special accommodations that naturally work to off set those who might take advantage these allowances.
