Your role in accessibility
Faculty and staff play an essential role in creating accessible educational environments. Students with disabilities comprise approximately 17 to 18% of the 老虎机攻略 student population. Therefore, instructors should assume that every course they teach has disabled students. We provide faculty, teaching graduate students, and staff with information, consultation, and training.
