Welcome to the Washburn University official web site. At this time, Washburn University is incorporating into our official web site accessibility standards issued by the federal access board on December 22, 2000.
We are pleased to provide an alternative medium for accessing information about our programs and services. If you have any suggestions for improving the accessibility features of our web site, please contact Shane Bartley.
If you encounter any page which is difficult to read due to color contrast issues, please report this by calling 785-228-6433 or sending mail to Ali Setayesh.
Our site map and search page assist in finding information more quickly.
If there is any information (or form) that is not accessible, please call 785-228-6433 or send email to Webmaster.
We recommend Ai Squared's ZoomText Magnifier/Reader or Freedom Scientific's JAWS for Windows for screen reading. These programs read all the content of your screen including menus and dialogs. For more information on each of these products, refer to their respective links.
Some of our online documents are in portable document format (.pdf). To read these documents, download Adobe Acrobat Reader.
Washburn Tech / Washburn University is conducting a self-study of its facilities and programs with regard to accessibility for persons with disabilities. While Washburn Tech is not required to have every facility totally accessible, it is required to have accessibility to services, programs and activities. Please complete a short survey to assist the committee in it's evaluation.
