Assistive animals may be of two sorts, a trained service animal, or an emotional support animal (ESA). Neither one is simply a pet, but are approved animals recommended by a medical or mental health professional to assist a person with a documented disability. A disability, by definition, is a physical or mental/mental health impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities (such as walking, seeing, working, hearing, learning, washing, dressing, communicating with others, etc.) Assistive animals are only permitted on campus after the disabled student has met all requirements below and submitted a signed and completed OBU Service or Emotional Support Animal Contract to the ADA 504 Coordinator. An exception to the no-animals or pets housing policy is granted for approved animals provided that their behavior, noise, odor, and waste do not exceed reasonable standards for a well-behaved animal and that these factors do not create unreasonable disruptions for other residents. If the foul odor or the noise (crying, barking, or meowing, etc.) is excessive as judged by residence life staff, it is grounds to terminate the student’s contract. Assistive animals must be house-trained and exhibit no aggressive behavior.
