What if I Have Special Needs?

Information for Visitors with Mobility Impairments

Graduates and guests with disabilities or those who may require special accommodations are requested to contact Jody Goldstein at 978-934-4574 to ensure that special needs will be addressed.

NOTE: The University cannot provide wheelchairs. If needed, they can usually be rented from a pharmacy or medical supply store.
  1. Parking for those with an HP plate or placard is provided immediately opposite the Tsongas Center entrance in Lot A.
  2. There are two ways to enter the Tsongas Center: there is a handicapped drop-off immediately to the left of the main stairs, leading to a ramp up to the main entrance. Once inside, the east elevator is located to the right. You may also enter through the east entrance (to the right of the main entrance), which leads to the east elevator.
  3. Seating for visitors with mobility impairments (and members of their visiting group) will be on the concourse at the top level of the seating in the Tsongas Center (take the elevator). Depending on the amount of such seating required, groups may need to be restricted to five persons together in this area.
  4. Rest rooms are available on the main floor and the concourse, near the elevator.
  5. The ceremony will be captioned on video screens within the Tsongas Center.
