By Frank Gravano, Graduate Assistant for Disability Resources
This year I am serving on the Student Government Association’s Accessibility & Sustainability Committee. It aims to raise awareness to SGA and all members of campus of the many issues concerning the topics of accessibility and sustainability in campus. Students involved with the committee offer concerns, ideas, and solutions to problems which arise concerning these topics. The committee is dedicated to reviewing campus building situations. A current goal is to improve accessible doors, making sure there is a plan in place for students when certain buildings are under renovation. The Committee also aims to work with ASC to improve their reusable water bottle program and add more water bottle filling stations around campus. Going forward the committee is excited to work along with clubs such as LEAP, SFAAC, and other committees to continue to improve the Cortland campus for everybody. The Disability Resources Office is learning from SGA’s work and collaborating with other offices to improve campus accessibility.
