Student Pregnancy

Student Pregnancy

Employees and student employees who become aware of a student's pregnancy or related condition are required to provide the student with the contact information of the Title IX/EO Coordinator so they can coordinate specific actions to ensure the student’s access to the college’s educational program or activity.

Reasonable modifications may include, but are not limited to: 

• Breaks during class to express breast milk, breastfeed, or attend to health needs associated with pregnancy or related conditions, including eating, drinking, or using the restroom 
• Intermittent absences to attend medical appointments 
• Access to online or homebound education 
• Changes in schedule or course sequence 
• Extensions of time for coursework and rescheduling of tests and examinations 
• Allowing a student to sit or stand or carry or keep water nearby. 
• Counseling 
• Changes in physical space or supplies (for example, access to a larger desk or a footrest) 
• Elevator access 
• Other changes to policies, practices, or procedures
