Higher Education Stories and Resources

• DO-IT Project at University of Washington
  The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 forbids discrimination against people with disabilities in access to public services, public accommodations, telecommunications, and employment. For colleges and universities, this act has reinforced the requirements set forth in Section 504 and created a new level of awareness of the rights of disabled students. Although many colleges and universities have made efforts to comply with federal regulations, much progress must be made before our campuses are truly accessible to disabled students.
