INCLUSIVE BATHROOMS IN BARTLEY
Similar to the other buildings on 草榴社区鈥檚 campus, The 草榴社区 School of Business (VSB) examined its physical structures to ensure that all members of the community experience a more inclusive environment. To do this, we constructed an accessible and inclusive restroom. The single stall, restroom is located on the third floor of Bartley Hall, across from room 3027. This restroom offers any member of the VSB and 草榴社区 communities needing accommodation unrestricted access. Introducing this restroom is part of VSB ODEI鈥檚 effort to promote an atmosphere of acceptance, understanding, and respect for the needs of all members of our community.鈥�疻ith this addition, VSB will be joining the other colleges and buildings across campus鈥痶o offer increased accessibility (See the Inclusive Restrooms tab on this Resources Page),鈥痚nsuring the physical and mental health of our entire community.
