On March 24th, University Police partnered with the Tennessee Highway Safety Office, Cookeville Police Department, and the Tennessee Highway Patrol to conduct “Crosswalk Talks” on North Dixie Avenue near the RUC. Officers and troopers engaged directly with pedestrians, emphasizing the importance of using designated crosswalks, staying alert, and avoiding distractions. The initiative aimed to reduce pedestrian-related incidents and promote safer habits when crossing busy roadways in high-traffic campus areas.
On April 24, 2026, updated regulations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title II will take effect for public universities. The updated rule expands the accessibility requirements for digital content by placing greater emphasis on ensuring that websites, mobile applications, and digital instructional materials, are accessible proactively, rather than applying retroactive accommodations. For more information on making your digital content accessible contact Associate Provost Bedelia Russell, Assistant Dean of Students Edward Beason, or Compliance Officer Greg Holt.
