I believe this is the first time we've encountered something like this and I called our disability department and they really couldn't answer the question. I appreciate the help.

Hi Daniel - This topic has been covered on the list (http://www.ilpi.com/dchas/index.search). Our division has presented symposiums and has a published book in the ACS Symposium Series on the topic (https://pubs..acs.org/isbn/9780841232761).

It is very confusing to me as to why the instructor canceled lab? The regulations are well established for accommodations of service animals (https://www.ada.gov/service_animals_2010.htm).

I would suggest you consult with your institution's office of disabilities (may be another name at your school).

Hello, 

My name is Daniel and I have lab safety question. One of our students brought a PTSD service dog to one of our physics labs. The instructor had to cancel lab until further notice. Could someone please share rules or regulations in terms of lab safety.
