Service Animal. Service animals as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) are dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Examples of such work or tasks include guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling a wheelchair, alerting and protecting a person who is having a seizure, reminding a person with mental illness to take prescribed medications, calming a person with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) during an anxiety attack, or performing other duties. Service animals are working animals, not pets. The work or task a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person’s disability. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the ADA. Service animals are allowed on campus in both public areas and in the residence halls.
Service Animal. Any guide dog, signal dog, therapy animal or other animal trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability.
