Respond, Innovate, Succeed, and Empower Act of 2017 or the RISE Act of 2017
This bill amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 to set forth requirements about data collection related to students with disabilities. Specifically, the bill requires institutions of higher education (IHEs) to outline which documents disabled students need to submit in order to ensure they are eligible for student disability support services.
IHEs must submit key data related to their undergraduate students with disabilities for inclusion in federal postsecondary institution data collection efforts.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
