ADA access expert coming to campus May 22


The University ADA Advisory Committee is co-sponsoring a one day conference on the new ADA Accessibility Guidelines on Thursday, May 22, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the Memorial Union.

Kristi Thomas, national leader and consultant in access issues, will explain the new guidelines and how to avoid lawsuits. She will also share ways of creating access solutions that not only comply with minimum standards, but exceed them when possible.

The registration and lunch costs are $25, payable by departmental journal entry. Contact Janice Troitte, Facilities, (janicetroitte@mail.und.edu or 777-2591) for a brochure and registration form.
