In response to my question:
I wonder if adult learners who need accommodations, due to physical, sensory, cognitive, or psychiatric reasons could "demand" these accommodations? Does anyone on this list know the answer to this?

They could probably make formal request with documentation and then go through the office of civil rights for assistance if denied.  I would guess that many if not most people in Adult Ed program do not have the knowledge of the system or the resources to complete that process.
