Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Compliance

Dakota State University is committed to providing access for all current and prospective students, administration and faculty.

If you have any questions about ADA compliance visit http://www.w3.org/WAI/References/QuickTips/.

 

The ADA Priority 1 checklist is located at http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT/full-checklist.html
 

Image ALT Tags

ALL images in the DSU Web must have an ALT (alternative) tag. An ALT tag provides a text equivalent for a graphic or image. To add the tag, insert ALT="description" in the IMG tag.

When ALT tags are used, visually impaired users using specially designed software can hear a synthesized voice describing the graphic. Also, users who choose to disable graphics within their browser options can view the ALT text.
