Accessible Accommodations
The University strives to make commencement accessible for those with disabilities. Make plans to arrive early for accessible parking, as spaces are limited.
Littlejohn Coliseum
Parking
ADA Parking will be available on the north side of Littlejohn Coliseum along Ravenel Road and the North Circle parking lot. There is a drop off location across from the accessible parking on Ravenel Road that provides minimal walking to the Coliseum. Staff will be available inside the north entrance with wheelchairs to assist guests to ADA seating. Staff will return to the guest with a wheelchair at the end of the ceremony to assist the guest with exiting the coliseum. Wheelchairs are not available for individual use and will not remain with guests during the ceremony.
Seating
Multiple wheelchairs are available to assist guests with limited mobility. Individuals who work graduation escort patrons from the entrance to accessible seating and then take the wheelchair for others to use. At the end of the graduation ceremony, these workers return with wheelchairs and escort patrons from their seats back to the entrance.
ASL Interpreters
For the ceremonies at Littlejohn, the interpreters are in a feed on the jumbotron, and there is a livestream that is accessible on a device for those who can't see the large screen. Captioning is also available in the same way.
