I would think your professor would and should be able to do this very easily and supply you with the files, which sounds like an easier solution than involving other departments.

Do you or anyone else know how to convert the latex into Word using one of the programs mentioned so I can tell my disability coordinator how to do it?

If you can get the LaTeX files, you can convert them to word/html using pandoc and MathJax.
