Welcome from the Associate Vice Chancellor for Equal Opportunity
Thank you for visiting the University Accessibility website. I hope that you will find everything that you need on this site. We know that there is not a “one size fits all” solution to access issues. These issues may show up in a variety of contexts: in the classroom, residence halls, workplaces, restrooms, just to name a few. If you have a question, can’t find what you are looking for, need help finding a campus resource, or just want to offer a suggestion, please feel free to contact me. If I can’t help you, I’m happy to connect you with the appropriate resource.
All the best!
Kerri Thompson Tillett, J.D.
