Think for a moment before you create that pie chart, hang that signage, or post that graphic. Will everyone be able to see the colors that you have used in it?
Color vision deficiency (CVD)—commonly called “color blindness”—affects 13 million Americans and 350 million people worldwide.
Join us during this drop-in event to learn about accessibility efforts for colorblind students, hear about campus research into color vision, and try on some EnChroma color blindness glasses!
Rain location: Hill Library, Fishbowl Forum
