Reporting Campus Accessibility Concerns
Cal Poly Humboldt is committed to equal access for individuals with disabilities. Humboldt encourages students, staff, faculty, and visitors to report any barrier that prevents access to Humboldt’s facilities, activities, programs, or electronic information. Barriers may include a broken elevator or wheelchair lift, an inaccessible website, or a blocked access ramp, for example.
The ADA/504 Coordinator receives accessibility concerns and will act accordingly to address concerns that fall within the purview of Humboldt. Information may be sought from the reporter to fully understand the nature of the barrier.
Some concerns, such as those that involve Humboldt’s webpage or digital presence may require interface with other departments. Humboldt works in partnership with the ATI Steering Committee in matters specific to website, learning management systems, and any web based documents.
