Accessibility is an essential part of creating an inclusive campus community. As technology, teaching methods, and campus services evolve, ensuring that everyone can access information and participate fully is both a shared responsibility and a key priority in higher education.
To help support that work at Swarthmore, the College has launched a new Accessibility Resources page
This site brings together helpful information for students, faculty, and staff in one place. While Swarthmore already provides excellent resources on topics like digital accessibility and accommodations for students and employees, there wasn’t previously a central space for more general accessibility questions. The new site fills that gap.
Developed by the Communications team, the site is intentionally simple and easy to navigate. It offers guidance, links to key campus offices, and resources to help community members learn more about accessibility and where to go for support.
Whether you are:
- A student looking for information about campus accessibility
- A faculty member creating inclusive course materials
- A staff member with questions about accessibility practices
This page can serve as a starting point to find answers and connect with the right resources.
Accessibility works best when it’s part of our everyday practices and conversations. I encourage everyone in the Swarthmore community to explore the new Accessibility Resources page and bookmark it for future reference.
Together, we can continue building a campus where information, learning, and opportunities are accessible to all.
