SSC Network Update

Wheelchair Accessible Computer Desks

Steve Rumas

Two wheelchair accessible computer stations have been installed in SSCL. One of these stations is in SSC 1032 (our largest computer classroom), in the first row, next to the centre aisle. The other is in SSC 1000 (our 2nd largest computer classroom) in the back row, next to the centre aisle. Both desks have handles to raise or lower the desktop (with monitor, mouse and keyboard) to accommodate a wheelchair. The stations are also marked with a sticker to indicate that handicapped individuals have first priority access. SSC 1000 and 1032 are available for scheduled class use and drop-in use outside of scheduled class time. To check room schedules select:
