Hello all,
I came across a website at this institution that is done with flash and they didn't bother making it accessible via keyboard nor did they give any audio cues. I emailed to complain and their terse reply stated that I can find a text version of this site at an alternate location, however there isn't any cue giving the link to this other location. And in their email reply they state that this is password protected and they didn't send the link. I don't know about you but I feel that separate is not equal particularly in this case. Consider they probably received some grant moneys to produce this site, the purpose of which is "sensitivity training." And the initial location you go to is not password protected though it is only an introduction, it isn't accessible. Please check it out and send your opinion to:
