Shorthorn: Dear John editorial

Description:

This editorial talks about wheelchairs, dimensions for wheelchair users, and accessibility overall. The article uses the slang term “Dear John” a lot; in the sense that the average male wheelchair user cannot get in to the bathroom. In conclusion, students with disabilities acknowledge the changes the university has done, but there are still major things that need to be addressed and changed.
