I work on the Integrated Design and Media department floor and have observed some accessibility problems, particularly with the entrance visitors use to access the department. Our floor has a lot of people come in and out of our floor but I noticed that individuals who use power chairs and wheelchairs had a difficult time with the automatic door and it would often close on them as they tried to make it through the narrow space. I focused on brainstorming ideas on how to come up with a solution.
