I am here to ask interview questions for wheelchair users. My research is based on the experiences of wheelchair users living on college campus. My goal is to find point out potential flaws in college designing and bring awareness of inequity in college campus design. If you can lend your time and share your experience with me please let me know. Thank you!

    Hi @mnmzie

    Welcome to Scope's forum. It is great to see you have joined us. What a great research project. I certainly think you will find lots of information if anyone is interested!

    @janer1967, You will have expertise you don't realise if you wish to share. For example, were you able to enter buildings in your wheelchair? All of them or some of them? What feature of the building in particular allowed you to access the buildings? Once you were in the buildings, were you able to enter all the rooms and move around the rooms freely? If yes, what made it this way? If not, what could have been improved? I hope this gives you an idea into some of the many fabulous ideas and insights you will have  :D

    I look forward to hearing about how this project progresses!
