Elizabeth,
You would think that was true, wouldn't you? But (ironically), students with learning disabilities and attention deficit disorders often need MORE academic accommodations than do students with more "traditional" disabilities. The issues for students with traditional disabilities tend to be about logistics, and can be supported by the disability service provider. The students with LD and ADHD are the ones who need support and attention from the faculty member. And... just for the record... students with LD and ADHD often need (and ask for) notetakers, as well!
