Mobility Devices: The venues do not offer mobility devices (wheelchairs, walkers, etc.) for guest use on-site. Please make arrangements to arrive at the venues with the appropriate mobility devices. As a courtesy, we have created a list of Ohio businesses offering mobility device rentals. The companies listed are not affiliated with Ohio University or the Heritage College.
Accessibility Seating: There are designated seating sections for guests with limited mobility and for full-time wheelchair users. To maximize our accessibility seating options, we ask that only one additional guest sit in this section. Ushers will be available to direct guests to these seats.
Limited Mobility Seating is available in the designated sections of the lower and upper balconies and requires navigating 1-2 steps in general seating. The wheelchair and stroller check area will be available in the main lobby.
Guests who are full-time wheelchair users and one guest will be directed to the floor in the Wheelchair User Seating Area, which is on the right side of the student seating and is accessible.
Deaf and Hard of Hearing: An American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter will provide interpreting services at the ceremony. There is a designated ASL seating section for the best view of the interpreter. The interpreter will also be shown on the live stream link so guests can watch the ceremony remotely.
Lactation: At 217 on the concourse, there is a Mamava lactation suite, a comfortable, private location for individuals needing to pump or nurse. To utilize the Mamava suite, you must download the Mamava App on the Apple App Store or Google Play. The app will allow you to unlock the Mamava suite in the Convocation Center. You can also use the code on the door, which is 8008.
Baby Changing: Located in the accessible stall in each restroom (last stall).
Security: Bag checks will be performed at the entrances. All bags and persons are subject to search.
