I wish he read my posts. I keep feeding him really simple stuff to take care of. It figures, an obozo goon took about the only thing this school has done right in years and of course ****ed THAT up too.


For a long time, the University of California, Berkeley has posted more than 20,000 lectures online — free for anyone to watch or listen to on YouTube and iTunes U.

Then a while back, two employees from Gallaudet University — the school for the deaf in Washington, D.C. — filed a complaint with the Justice Department. Their problem? “Berkeley’s free online educational content was inaccessible to blind and deaf people because of a lack of captions, screen reader compatibility and other issues,” according to an account at Inside Higher Ed.

Last August, the DOJ found Berkeley was violating the Americans With Disabilities Act. Rather than expend the man-hours and money required to add closed-captioning to the videos, the lectures will be pulled down from public view starting next week. Henceforth, only University of California students, faculty and staff will have access.

We hope the regulators feel good about their accomplishments…
