Description

Navigating UMBC's campus-on-a-hill as a person with a disability brings out overt and sometimes more subtle features of its accessible design.  Join us to learn more!

What are the features? We have many, including a Skywalk and several upgrades that happened while we were remote.

What are the bugs?  Learn more about how work with situations, whether it's contacting Work Control for a repair (410-455-2550), reporting an accessibility concern, or working with campus partners to support inclusion.  Accessibility is everyone's responsibility.

We will meet outdoors at the Sondheim Statue (he is offering a seat) between the Sondheim and Math Psych Buildings on the Lower Academic Row. The tour is limited to a small group includes indoor spaces so bring a mask.

Can't make the day or time? More tours are planned.  Have a (small) group? Email us to set up a day and time that works for the occasion.
