Mandating Academic Adjustments in Higher Ed

2025 - Colorado Senate

Conservatives Oppose

Description

This bill requires institutions of higher education to provide specified academic adjustments for students with disabilities, imposing new compliance obligations on campuses. CPAC is wary of one-size-fits-all mandates on universities that invite litigation and bureaucratic expansion and opposed this bill. The Senate passed this bill on 2025-03-04 by a vote of 21-12. The House passed this bill on 2025-03-31 by a vote of 58-5. The bill later became law.
