In accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, and the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA) of 2008, Rice University does not discriminate on the basis of disability, in admission, treatment, or access to its programs or activities, nor does it discriminate in employment in its programs or activities.
The disability community represents a significant segment of the population. According to the World Health Organization, globally, there are more than 1 billion people living with a disability. With this global perspective in mind, we embrace digital accessibility as more than a legal compliance requirement. Creating experiences that are accessible to all is our moral obligation.
We work diligently to detect and correct accessibility issues before they become barriers. We prioritize digital accessibility as part of our commitment to delivering an inclusive experience for everyone. This work involves creating accessible designs, delivering code that appropriately interacts with assistive technology, and ensuring the user interface is logical and functional for all. We are proud to partner with Level Access, a company founded upon this shared belief.
