Law Society of Ontario has shown zero regard for the safety and well-being of students w/ disabilities. The mandate to write in-person while case numbers skyrocket is discriminatory, ablelist, and heartless. Pls read & share the below statement from Disability Collective of Osgoode

While my main concern with the Law Society of Ontario’s abrupt licensing exam changes is covid safety, the mandated shift to in-person exams is also really frustrating in that it forces me to completely restart the accommodation process, and means my access needs can’t as easily be met.

Students with disabilities have had to fight tooth and nail for basic accommodations over the past two years. To pile on this added burden, demanding additional labour from them just as they enter their finals is cruel and discriminatory. Law Society of Ontario

I'm going to be paying for a cab to take me from downtown to York because of the risks of transit. I'm terrified of catching COVID at my exam and infecting my grandmother who wants to see me for Easter.

Admin is saying that we can't do online exams because of "academic integrity" but I'm supposed to trust that everyone filled out their COVID screen honestly despite ENORMOUS incentive to fudge things so they can write their exam...

Accessibility isn’t extra steps, it’s steps you’ve missed.

Today, in-person exams begin at Osgoode Hall Law School of York University and, frankly, it frightens me that the administration is continuing to hold the line that "academic integrity" is a more weighty consideration than our safety and that of our communities #UnsafeAtOsgoode
