&lt;p&gt;To the Editor:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kudos for introducing disability as a viable diversity topic! I was pleased to read about a number of different situations and perspectives (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chronicle.com/specialreport/Diversity-in-Academe-/55&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Special Report: Diversity in Academe: Disability on Campus,&lt;/a&gt; &lt;em&gt;The Chronicle,&lt;/em&gt; September 18).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I found it worrisome however how &lt;em&gt;The Chronicle&lt;/em&gt; failed to model access in the very articles that talked about accessibility. Case in point: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chronicle.com/article/Video-DeafSpace-by-Design/237275&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;“DeafSpace by Design”&lt;/a&gt; should include audio description. And for the record, your iPad app still isn’t accessible to the device’s built-in screen-reading software. It would be great if &lt;em&gt;The Chronicle&lt;/em&gt; could model access in everything it does (even when it isn’t related to disability) now that the articles it promotes show how access brings value.&lt;/p&gt;
