I AM A VETERAN WITH A SERVICE DOG . WHAT ARE THE LAWS FOR SERVICE DOGS ON THE NWTC CAMPUS ?
In accordance with federal law , use of a service dog in university facilities and on university campuses , including attendance at a campus-sponsored concert or special events , may not be challenged except if the use of the dog poses a direct threat to the health or safety of other persons , or if the presence of the service dog will result in a fundamental alteration of the service , program , or activity involved . ( Title II of the ADA Regulations , 28 C . F . R . -130 [ b ][ 7 ])
As a result , a service dog must be permitted to accompany any associated person with a disability anywhere on the NWTC campus and at off-campus activities such as curriculum-related internships , fieldwork , and NWTC-affiliated program outings , except in areas and situations where it is unsafe to do so or where the presence of the service dog fundamentally alters the nature of the service , program or activity .
