The Daily Bulletin

Buffalo State College's official web products are mandated to be accessible to all. To ensure ADA accessibility, college websites are designed and developed in adherence with the W3C’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA standards. Please note that web accessibility requirements extend to include all images, documents (including PDFs and Word documents), videos, and applications residing on college web pages, as well as any third-party products connected to sites.

Each area with a web presence is responsible for ensuring that the content, images, documents, and videos found on their site are compliant with WCAG 2.0 Level AA standards. This web accessibility page explains how to complete an ADA check and also provides resources for closing compliance gaps, including specific guidance for PDF and Microsoft Office documents. 

Marketing and Communications web staff provide accessibility training as part of our regular Drupal training. The team also runs ADA checks on all Drupal sites on a rotating basis as well as by request; findings are shared with primary web contacts (PWCs) for any needed remediation.

ADA compliance is a campuswide effort, and we appreciate your diligence in helping fulfill this mandate. Please feel free to contact Melissa Meehan, web administration director, with questions.

For those interested in learning more about accessibility from a variety of perspectives, the 13th annual CUNY Accessibility Conference, "The State of Accessibility: Are We Living Up to the Promise of Compliance and the Law," will take place online April 11-14. This virtual conference is free; registration is open until Monday, April 11.
