<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Jess, Amy, and Tom:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I wanted to share my appreciation for your EDUCAUSE Review <a href="https://er.educause.edu/articles/2018/3/when-accessibility-doesnt-make-it-into-the-educause-top-10-turn-it-up-to-11">
article on digital accessibility</a>, and your choice to pivot from wondering why that issue is missing (again) from the EDUCAUSE Top 10 IT Issues to asking, “What can we do about it.” Bravo!
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As the EDUCAUSE staff lead for the Top 10 project, there are issues that I wish, wish, wish would make the Top 10 but do not. So your recognition that 10 is a conceit that constrains was a wonderful reframing.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I loved your practical advice and your commitment to this issue. Congratulations!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best,<br>
Susan<o:p></o:p></p>
