The DOJ extended the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title II digital accessibility deadline for large public institutions, but the practical readiness gap remains wide. The article warns that almost no institutions are fully compliant as the obligation moves from timeline-based planning into ongoing implementation through procurement, development, and accessibility testing. For higher education, the key operational question is how quickly IT and procurement teams can evaluate third-party software, LMS features, web and mobile platforms, and accessibility documentation—especially when campus vendors update frequently. Trustees, CIOs, and compliance offices are likely to focus on governance and procurement controls that ensure accessibility requirements are built into contracts and development cycles rather than handled as one-time remediation.
