Disability Services at UW Green Bay and UW Oshkosh. Disability Services on these campuses
provide a range of similar services to students with registered disabilities: assistance in obtaining
access to adaptive materials or in creating these materials for students, assistance in enhancing
access to information provided in the classroom, help with test-taking and other resources to
enhance student outputs, and assistance in seeking materials and help from other resources
outside the University. If these students need Braille, large print, books on tape, or other
assistive learning systems, Disabilities Services will make every reasonable effort to help the
students obtain them. These services are described on each University’s website:

Both the UW Green Bay and UW Oshkosh campuses have developed student handbooks
detailing these supports for students as well.
At times, a student with a disability is sometimes concerned about how their specific disability
might impact their work in the field. For further exploration of this issue students should feel
free to seek out the Collaborative MSW Field Coordinator.

project, or if they forge his/her academic credentials or documents. Writing a paper and lifting
the content from a book or article without proper citation or failing to paraphrase or restate the
content in one’s own words is called plagiarism. It is subject to disciplinary action and may
result in a failing grade, a reprimand, or a demand to redo the work. Proper citation must
accompany anything other than original thought – direct quotations, paraphrased or summarized
content, etc. The University Policy on Academic Dishonesty is also applicable.
Academic Performance Concerns: Insufficient Grades
Students must achieve a grade of B or Pass (field) in all required courses. When a student’s
grade falls below this level, an automatic review process occurs. This review process occurs
with the student under the oversight of the Academic Status Review Committee appointed by the
Oversight Committee. As a result of its deliberations, the Committee informs the student of its
