LSU student Alexandra Arceneaux is very excited about the new sidewalk on campus.

“There’s a new side walk that I’m raving about,”Arceneaux said. 
Although she is excited about the sidewalk improvement, Arceneaux said she feels like LSU isn’t doing enough to make the campus accessible for her wheelchair. 
LSU Disability services website states that the school is committed to providing appropriate accommodations for students, however appropriate does not mean equal. Cracks, heavy doors and untimely elevators can be seen throughout campus, increasing the level of difficulty for students with disabilities.
“They don’t have accessible buildings,” Arceneaux said. “Sometimes they don’t have bathrooms that are accessible.”
LSU Disability Services Director Benjamin Cornwell said the main issues are buildings located in LSU’s quad. Many of these buildings have inaccessible bathrooms and heavy doors. There are also no elevators in the school’s testing center.
Cornwell said he believes LSU meeting the minimum American Disability Act requirements fumes students’ frustration.  
“It makes me feel really insignificant,” Arceneaux said. The substantial renovations that LSU need would cost the state millions, but Cornwell said LSU will continue putting pressure on the state.
