“This document contains the designers’ version of the Universal Design Performance Measures for Products. These Performance Measures are intended to guide the development of more universally usable products. The Performance Measures are based on the Principles of Universal Design (The Center for Universal Design, 1997), beginning with the initial, overall concept of Equitable Use (Principle One) and proceeding to the physical detail of Size and Space for Approach and Use (Principle Seven). Depending on the nature of the product, some Principles may not apply, and it may sometimes be more effective to apply them out of order.”

"The idea of  'grading' a campus is that 1) educators and educational systems understand the idea of grades and report cards, and 2) there is some rationale for examining various areas of an organization's skill and knowledge to see how a campus rates in each of the areas. Also, like a report card, grades can be observed over time to witness progress or identify problem areas requiring additional attention."

"When many students enter college for the first time, they experience some confusion because of the uniqueness posed by the setting and the activities. Since planning is important to success, we offer this accessibility checklist as one device for planning a successful college experience. The checklist was created with all students in mind, but is particularly helpful for students who are challenged by certain aspects of the education environment, such as those students with various disabilities. The checklist can be helpful for students without disabilities, students with hidden or mild disabilities and students with verified or significant disabilities."
