This is a quick checklist to use when designing a syllabus and ensuring its accessibility. While the syllabus AUDIT gives a more comprehensive dissection of a syllabus, this seems like a helpful tool for someone who understands the AUDIT and just needs a quick checklist to refer to before finalizing any syllabi.

I think this is a great tool for faculty to use to check the accessibility of their syllabus. I would recommend this to all faculty to use when making their syllabus.

"...Even though I was flunking English because I couldn't spell; in my high school year book under ambitions I had written 'Author'. When I went off to college I ran into a guy at the University of Oregon named Ralph Salisbury who was my first creative writing instructor and he turned all the lights on for me. He was the first teacher in all my years who actually said I had talent. Some people don't know this, but I have dyslexia."
