Abstract
In this thesis, I investigate the meaning of web accessibility, the types of disabilities that affect
web use and common assistive technologies, the most widely accepted web accessibility
standards in the United States and which tools/methods can be used to check for web
accessibility. Additionally, I describe the State University of New York (SUNY) system and
their attempts at web accessibility. By applying the WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool
to selected pages in a sample of SUNY schools, I was able to determine that only ten percent of
the schools reviewed were fully accessible.
