Letter: Accessibility at public facilities remains poor

Sunday, June 11, 2000 | 9:53 a.m.

I am finishing my associate's degree at the Community College of Southern Nevada's Charleston campus and there are handicap facilities there that have become barriers and downright nuisances. I can't help but laugh sometimes when I have to almost completely circle a building before I find a handicap-accessible entrance or if I have to ascend a near 90-degree slope while the elevator is being repaired.

Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for that May 21 article. I was impressed to see someone, even if it was one or a few individuals, who noticed that not all is well in the world for those who are disabled.
