Four Components of A11y Culture Building • Culture Shift, Not Compliance • Know Your Campus Landscape • Tap Into Campus Initiatives/Priorities • Create a Culture Shift Plan
Culture Shift, Not Compliance • What do we mean by this? • Recycling as a metaphor • Incentives (e.g. Social Justice)
Know Your Campus Landscape • Resource Scan • Who is already on board? Where are your difficult areas? • What is the overarching philosophy on campus?
Tapping Into Campus Initiatives/Priorities • What is already happening around campus that you can connect with? • Openness and compromise • Examples: Critical Diversity in a Digital Age / Go Green - Go 15
Creating a Culture Shift Plan • Understanding who your faculty are... who are you going to go talk to, etc. • Baby steps and iterative work • Checklist and continual process improvement
