Digital Accessibility Task Force

In response to significant updates to the ADA Title II regulations, the university formed the Digital Accessibility Task Force in July 2025. This collaborative group, comprised of key stakeholders from across the university, is charged with streamlining compliance, providing campus-wide guidance, and ensuring that OU's resources and processes align strictly with federal regulations.
