Access Quest Walking Tour

About

Join us for an Access Quest Walk through CEME, KAIS first floor, and MCLD first floor! This tour will be facilitated by Jen Pelletier. We will explore bathrooms, seating areas, classrooms, and more. We will learn to notice what works and what doesn't in fulfilling people's needs. Some spaces may have both!

This even is offered as a part of Access Quest. Join us to learn how to identify Gold Stars and Barriers across campus.

The route includes elevator access at CEME and level, hard-floor surfaces throughout the rest of the route. Please note that the KAIS lobby tiles can become slippery when wet. 

We will convene together at 12:55 PM in the CEME ground-floor lounge together to begin the event.
