August 19, 2010 -  University of Illinois Opens State-of-the-Art Residence Hall for Students with Disabilities.

Kudos to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign for designing and building a dorm with facilities for students with significant physical disabilities. Special service packages are offered in this residence hall that include Personal Assistants (PAs) who live in the building to help students with their personal care.  Doors open and close via a wireless card and a wireless pager system allows residents to call PAs for assistance 24 hours a day.  Other features include wheelchair accessible sinks, thermostats, and a ceiling lift system for those students who cannot get from their beds to the bathroom.

The University of Illinois has been a leader in providing disability services for students being the first to offer curb cuts, bus routes equipped with wheelchair lifts and support an on-campus wheelchair sports program.
