Letter: On right track for better access

Monday, Dec. 11, 2000 | 11:06 a.m.

Just a note to thank you for the awesome editorial about the Thomas & Mack and the lack of access for people with disabilities. Although the officials act like they are working with us, their promises were false and slow in progress. This editorial not only got their attention but has created quite a stir by officials and regents.

It is my hope that this press not only allows us the privilege to improve this facility but that it opens the doors for a full campus assessment. Believe it or not there are classrooms and areas that people in wheelchairs cannot access. Jim Wadhams and I will be at the Legislature asking that this becomes a priority for our state. Thanks to reporter Steve Kanigher for paying attention to this and for continuing to watch the improvements. Stay with us, we have a long road ahead of us.
