Accessibility

We are committed to providing a meaningful and accessible experience for everyone who attends the symposium. If you would like to request a specific accommodation, please contact the symposium organizers at rwchairs@lclark.edu and we will do our best to make the necessary arrangements. Unfortunately, many spaces at Lewis & Clark College are not fully accessible, particularly by wheelchair. If you contact us in advance, we can work with you more fully.

Symposium events are primarily scheduled in Templeton Campus Center and the Agnes Flanagan Chapel/Diane Gregg Pavilion. Both buildings have all-user bathrooms. For details, please consult this campus map identifying all-user bathrooms. 

Sign language interpreters will be provided at all keynote events. Speakers have been asked to provide captions for all videos.

If you would like a large-format printed program or other large-format materials, please contact the symposium organizers directly.

We ask that symposium participants remain fragrance free as much as possible so the symposium can remain an accessible space for people with chemical sensitivities.

We are sorry that we are unable to provide childcare during the symposium.

If you do not want to be recorded during the Q&A portion of the keynote events, please let us know.

Symposium volunteers will take photographs at many of the events. If you do not want your photo taken, please inform the photographer.

Additional Information for Presenters

Audiovisual Needs: We ask presenters to communicate their AV needs via email at any time before the symposium. We are able to provide a shared laptop, data projector, and large screen at all sessions. Please indicate if your presentation requires audio playback, special software, or other lighting or sound support. We ask presenters to bring their work on a flash drive and to take a few moments to download their presentations to the shared computer desktop before the session begins. We strongly recommend that all presenters test their presentations on a computer other than the ones on which the presentations were initially created. The College provides wireless Internet access.
