Access Dartmouth

Diversity in all its variations is central to the Dartmouth experience. Our commitment to diversity goes back to our founding charter and is today a critical element of our mission. As part of our ongoing diversity efforts, we endeavor to remove barriers of all kinds, and to build a campus environment that is universally accessible to all people.

Working Toward an Accessible Dartmouth Web

Dartmouth's Web Access Group produced an informational booklet about universal design for Web sites. The booklet explains the principles of universal design and how they relate to Web sites, offers some easy checks to assess whether your site is accessible, and provides information about tools and resources you can use to make your site usable by all.
