I find that the school's infrastructure and facilities are sometimes not fully inclusive. Some areas lack ramps, making navigation difficult for those who need them. Attendance and reporting illness is another issue; the process can be so tedious that some students attend school even when unwell. Additionally, regarding suspensions, students often feel pressured to attend classes, even with a weak Wi-Fi connection, because their grades depend on it.

The school welcomes students of different cultures and backgrounds. While it's a catholic school, it respects those with different religion.

I perceived DLSU as an inclusive institution as it caters to students who came from different backgrounds. Although there are lapses in terms of the mode of learning, the community ensures that all students are heard and prioritizes their needs.

Some people may feel that DLSU is not fully inclusive because, like many institutions, it still faces gaps in accessibility, representation, or support for certain student groups. Others point out that socioeconomic barriers can limit who is able to enter and thrive within the university. These concerns don’t mean the school is uninclusive by intention, but rather that there is still room for improvement in ensuring all students feel equally welcomed and supported.

DLSU is inclusive because it strives to create a learning environment where every student feels valued, respected, and supported. The university promotes diversity through its programs, policies, and student organizations that welcome people of all backgrounds. It also encourages open dialogue and understanding, helping everyone feel they truly belong.

DLSU is not inclusive, for they seldom think about the experiences of persons of disabilities. A lot of the classrooms at DLSU can be reached through stairs, which can be difficult and inconvenient for those who use wheelchairs or are unable to walk properly. Even though there are elevators, they're usually small, which can cause delays and make students tardy. This is also seen by the roads nearby, especially going to the Andrew and Razon building. The streets are bumpy and are constantly under construction, making it extremely hard to travel quickly from within 15 minutes. DLSU tends to also not be inclusive during times of calamity, such as typhoons, as they often make classes online, without thinking about whether the students have stable WiFi connection or are able to study due to the condition of their houses.

DLSU is inclusive because despite being a Catholic school, they do not discriminate when accepting students and in the rules they implement. No matter the religion and social status, DLSU reviews students fairly. DLSU also does not cling onto conservative mindsets, for they give students the chance to express themselves freely with their clothings and conduct events that will welcome people, such as Pride month activities.

Things get rough when we talk about inclusivity in DLSU, as some areas of the campus are not PWD-friendly, such as Gokongwei Hall and the STRC building. There are also multiple broken paths and significant changes in elevation in some parts, which can be hard to go through.

DLSU is inclusive because it accepts everyone, no matter what their background in beliefs and religion. It also strives for respect and fairness, and will greet you with open arms.

One thing I noticed is that DLSU is not PWD-friendly. When I had a medical concern where I needed to use the wheelchair, I had a hard time traveling from one building to the other, especially from Andrew to the main campus. I empathize with other people who are physically disabled because I experienced for a short time what they probably experience every day.

DLSU can be considered as an inclusive institution since it is one of the schools that welcomes students from different backgrounds and even different genders, allowing them to express themselves freely.

DLSU isn't inclusive in a way that its already high tuition keeps increasing every year, making it hard for students who don't have an exceptionally wealthy background. Evidently, these raises in tuition fees aren't reflected in what could be beneficial for the students. As many of the building's facilities lack PWD accessibility. A common complaint from students would be the lack of elevators, as they always seem to be under repair, and that the existing usable elevators are slow.

DLSU is inclusive in a way that it accepts students, no matter their background, despite it being a private Catholic institution. They allow students to have the freedom of expression, like how they don't have a uniform nor a very strict dress code.

The school's tuition fee keeps increasing every term, and they aren't transparent with the miscellaneous fees, like what those fees are that we need to pay. For pure online setups for GE's, why is it also the same price as the other hybrid class with 3 units? Though there are scholarships that DLSU provides its quite hard or limited to a few students that can get these scholarships. Not everyone in DLSU has good socioeconomic status.

# data[].attributes.body
DLSU is not entirely inclusive, as online classes are still being enforced even though they could be switched to asynchronous formats. Although DLSU is often referred to as a "school for the poor," this no longer aligns with its current branding. Additionally, despite tuition fee increases, we have yet to see significant improvements that justify the rising costs.

In summary, the school promotes equality rather than equity. If they were truly pushing for equity, they would offer classes specifically tailored for students with exceptionalities. Moreover, they should take into account the financial struggles of middle-class students before implementing any tuition fee increases.

DLSU is inclusive in the sense that it accepts students with disabilities and exceptionalities. This is evident in its infrastructure, and I have personally met students with exceptionalities on campus.

Evidently, there are a lot of spaces in DLSU that are not PWD-friendly. Buildings lack elevators and paths are being constructed for more than months now. The lack of urgency with regards to addressing this issue is an implication that DLSU is not invlusive in this regard.

DLSU's policy and services align with an inclusive approach to education. Its mission and values are reflected in its actions that is evident in their programs

At times Dlsu is not very inclusive , due to how big dlsu is some students who have disability to move around will have difficulties making it in time if there chosen classes were so close in time but not in space . while they can help the students without disability such as through faculty and with how the building is made . It would be better if they have soemthing that allows the students to tell the school they have a disability to make the exception for them to select classes that are close to each other .

DLSU in inclusive because unlike other Catholic schools who strictly enforce conservative values on its students when it comes to clothing, it recognizes the student's right to self-expression which greatly benefit student's learning.

DLSU can enhance its inclusivity by being more vocal about how the university promotes diversity. Having knowledge about what an institution can offer for people with special needs makes it more welcoming to everyone.

I have seen a few professors who have properly handled situations in class that involved a student with special learning needs. I would say that DLSU has trained/provided the right information for professors and students to know how to respond in these situations. DLSU does its best to make everyone feel like they belong.

The online and hybrid set-up may be difficult for some students due to limited resources and internet connectivity issues. These problems, ultimately, hinder the learning of students.

DLSU is not inclusive when it comes to mental health. Although there is a conselling office and mental health is acknowledged in the classroom, considerations for mental health all boils down to the beliefs of the professor. Some professors are understanding while others firmly believe it is just an excuse students make or a bother. DLSU is also not sensitive when it comes to implementing its continuity policies. As my fellow coursemates have mentioned, DLSU’s decision to implement synchronous classes amidst suspensions and the recent storm is an example of them ignoring the concerns of students.

# data[].attributes.body
DLSU is inclusive because of the measures it takes to accomodate people with disability or specific needs. It is evident in the infrastructure of the school where there are ramps around the campus. Most of the buildings have elevators and some of its buttons have Braille on them. Some classrooms have different colored tiles at the center of the room. Chairs are not supposed to be place in these tiles as they mark the pathway for wheelchair users. Upon your admission at DLSU, you are required to take an medical exam and disclose any pertinent medical information. These information is required by the school in order to make necessary arrangements to accomodate students. The campus also offers counselling services through OCCS. Professors also ask the language spoken of students at the start of the term. They adjust the mode of language and also recommend international students to Filipino introductory courses for them to get settled in their classes.

The institution insists on synchronous online classes despite students' struggles with internet connectivity. It depends on the professors who decide to understand their students’ situations and disregard DLSU's announcements– instead extending deadlines for ongoing activities and refraining from holding online classes.

The institution, as well as the faculty I am under, acknowledges and respects students' differences in needs, socioeconomic backgrounds, cultures, and intellectual levels.

because.... the default shift to online classes during suspensions assumes all students have stable internet and a good learning environment. Wherein many struggle with poor connectivity or harsh weather, making it hard to keep up.

...Although DLSU follows Catholic tradition, it does not impose religious teachings on students of different beliefs ₍I noticed this even if it's an LC course), but rather fosters an environment of respect and openness.

We can alsoo see the growing support of Pride events and the presence of vibrant scholar organization, such as LSS (Lasallian Scholar Society). There's also a special enrollment for students with disabilities, reflecting the school's effort to accommodate diverse needs. These just show that the univ is still evolving in making the institution comfortable for its learners.
