Special facilities and services are provided handicapped students of Texas A&M University, with more coming. Fall and summer class sched ules acquaint physically disabled students with registration assist ance, Dean of Admissions and Records Edwin H. Cooper noted. Elevators, ramps and handrails are being installed or planned for existing campus buildings that lack easy access for handicapped students. Low-angle ramps will be in use at the Academic Building, YMCA, University Library and Chemistry Buildings before fall classes be gin, according to Howard Perry. The associate dean of students served on a committee that stud ied and recommended renovations. Among the modifications will be an elevator in Bolton Hall. All new construction on the TAMU campus provides for han dicapped persons use, in accord ance with federal legislation. Among buildings designed to in clude features for the handicapped are the Zachry Engineering Cen ter, Memorial Student Center ad dition and eight-story office- classroom building. Handicapped students needing registration assistance will be helped by members of the TAMU chapter of Alpha Phi Omega, na tional service fraternity. Registration headquarters in the Cushing Building has been fur nished a list of APO members who will contact a student who re quests assistance. Any handicapped student can initiate help by phoning 845-7117. The office of Donald D. Carter will notify an APO member who will contact the student to deter mine how, when and where assist ance can be given. “All efforts will be coordinated through Mr. Carter’s office so that the registration process will cause as little inconvenience as possible for the disabled student,” explain ed Registrar Robert A. Lacey. At least one handicapped stj dent used the service during M preregistration, noted Carter, ft said TAMU currently enroll! about 50 disabled students.
