The meeting focused on several key proposals and updates. A proposal for bathroom signage on campus, focusing on academic buildings, was approved, with a plan to seek funding. Discussions included renovations to the Hulings basement restrooms to create two ADA-accessible all-gender restrooms, estimated at $75,000. The committee also recommended adding links to an interactive campus map showing accessible restrooms on various websites. Finally, an update on Resident Advisor training and the Res Life website modifications to improve communication about restroom accommodations was provided. A separate section details a restroom re-direct sign review, focusing on high-traffic buildings with limited accessible restrooms, and provides recommendations for signage in specific buildings.
