anyone know how to get someone to back off if thier giving you a hard time about your epilepsy an related issues . My professor feels like I getting one over on the systems and i feel is riding my ass
Yes file a complaint , he is just ignorant .
I would speak to the school Compliance office about the professor's behavior and state that he/she is discriminating based on a disorder you have no control over. State that if this professor's attitude does not change , you will have to file a complaint with the Federal Department of Education. That should be the end of that!
I would start with the school administrator or head bosses of the school. Tell them about the disrespect from your teacher and about your ADA rights.
