Access Challenge
April 25
The Advocacy and Beyond Club (ABC) at Rhode Island College is hosting its 3rd annual ACCESS CHALLENGE on Wednesday, April 25, from 12:30-6:30 p.m. on the quad and in the Faculty Center. This extraordinary event was developed by RIC alumna, the late Dana Wright, to educate the RIC community about the experiences of individuals with physical disabilities on campus. Participants experience the challenges of performing their usual daily activities on campus by using wheelchairs for five hours, recording and sharing their experiences at a roundtable dinner discussion.
In addition to the wheelchair Challenge, there will also be an "Eye Opening Experience" (Visual Impairment Simulation activities) on the RIC quad from 12:30-2 p.m.
RIC Students, Faculty, and Staff are invited to participate. For more information or to register for this event, visit http://www.ric.edu/sherlockcenter/teachers/abc.html.
Events are free and open to the public unless otherwise noted. For more information on diversity week events stop by the Unity Center (DDC lower level) or check back on this webpage for the latest information on events. Reasonable accommodations for disabilities available upon request.
