The University of Idaho established Student Disability Services in 1977. This sub-department was a result of the Rehabilitation Act in 1973, which required that all federally funded institutions provide accommodations in all programs for students with disabilities. The act also required that all newly constructed buildings be equipped with facilities for those with disabilities (buildings constructed prior to the act were not required to renovate for accessibility).
Student Disability Services was created under the larger Student Advisory Services department. In 1977, there were approximately fifty students attending the university who had disabilities. Dianne S. Milhollin was the sub-department's first coordinator. Milhollin also ran substance abuse programs and was an advisor to the Alpha Gamma Delta sorority. Milhollin worked to renovate campus facilities to meet accessibility initiatives, with the university library being one of the first.
Milhollin retired in 2003 and passed away on September 15, 2018. The university's Student Disability Services eventually transformed into the Center for Disability Access and Resources (CDAR).
Many of the materials in this collection were kept by Dianne S. Milhollin. These include correspondence, flyers, publications, informational papers on diabetes, alcohol abuse, disability employment opportunities, and other documents. There are also two audio cassette tapes.
Series and folders are arranged in alphabetical order.
