IN OBSERVANCE OF THE 32ND ANNIVERSARY OF THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT

  WE PRESENT: FIVE EPIC ACCESSIBILITY FAILS IN MIAMI

The Rathskeller on campus has a large and lovely patio for outdoor dining overlooking Lake Osceola and the fine, leafy campus. 

Until recently, all outdoor dining was facilitated with the inaccessible, four-seat gliders. 

The image below shows the single, roll-up, wheelchair-accessible table. It would be nice to see more than one -- but we praise the management there for meeting with disabled students and making an effort. 

So far, the Rathskeller seems to be the only spot working toward inclusion.

We have counted several hundred of these gliders on every corner of campus that humiliate and isolate people with disabilities.
