This lab maintains various types of adaptive equipment for use by students while attending East Central College. Limited equipment is available for checkout and on a first come first serve basis. Students are required to sign the loan agreement form and are responsible for any damage incurred while in their possession.

If equipment is not returned by the completion of the semester in which it was used, grades and transcripts will be withheld. In addition, the student may be held legally responsible for equipment reimbursement.
