Strengthen Campus Accessibility

We will build upon this legacy by continuing our efforts to update the campus Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan through field surveys and work to eliminate identified barriers to accessibility in campus walkways, street crossings, facilities, or programs.
