OHSU's Physical Access Committee
The Physical Access Committee (PAC) is charged with identifying barriers to access by people with disabilities at OHSU and to present findings and recommendations to OHSU's administration concerning access needs and priorities for meeting those needs.
The committee's primary responsibility is to identify barriers that interfere with the ability of people with a disability to access OHSU. Findings and recommendations shall identify the barriers to access that prevent people with a disability from meaningfully using campus facilities related to instruction, academic support, assembly and residence.
