Watch Chip lead the way to accessible paths on campus! Next tour- Nov. 19 @ Math/Psych 222!
October was Disability Identity and Awareness Month, and SDS was bustling with exciting events! One of the highlights was welcoming our special guest, Chip, who joined us for one of our monthly Accessibility Walk & Roll Tours.

We're thrilled to share a video showcasing Chip as she explores and demonstrates some of the accessible routes around campus. If you missed this one, don't worry! There are more opportunities to join us. Our next tour will take place on November 19 at 12 PM.

Stylized promotional graphic resembling a video viewer interface with a crumpled paper texture background. A central paw print cutout reveals a chocolate Labrador puppy named Chip, seated on a wicker chair, wearing a collar with a tag and a cartoon crown on its head. Surrounding the cutout are scattered paw prints. Text that reads “Accessibility Walk and Roll Tour: Chip’s Edition ♥” at the top.

What are the features? We have many, including a Skywalk and several upgrades (lecture halls and elevators) and more on the way.

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, such as Facilities Management  and DoIT to support inclusion.  Accessibility is everyone's responsibility.

We will gather in the ADS Conference Room - learn the skywalk and tunnel connections within the Academic Core, review Adaptive Computing within the Library, and visit the reception area of Retriever Integrated Health - which supports both physical and mental health.  The tour is limited to a small group, and please know that mask use is VERY WELCOME.

UMBC is committed to creating an accessible and inclusive environment for all.  To request accommodation(s) or to inquire about event accessibility, please contact us via slazar@umbc.edu with "November 10/11 Accessibility Tour" in the subject line.

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.  

Come learn, explore, and experience how accessibility shapes our campus community. See you then!
