Web Accessibility Statement

概述

University of Houston-Clear Lake is committed to ensuring its digital content complies with current federal and state accessibility requirements and with the Americans with 残疾法案. Compliance requires that a person with a disability be able to acquire the same information, engage in the same interactions and enjoy the same services as a person without a disability, and be able to do so in an equally effective manner with substantially equivalent ease of use. Information and services must be made available at the same time to a person with a disability as to a person without a disability. Beyond that, UHCL strives to support sustainable, user-friendly, device-independent displays to ensure all audiences can access information without the need for adaptation or specialized design.
