Emergency Evacuation
Emergency Evacuation and Identified Rally Points
In the event of a fire or other emergency evacuation, individuals who need assistance should go to the designated assembly points listed in the link below. Emergency personnel will assist with safe evacuation from these identified stairwells and rally points. Do not use elevators.
Transportation
Parking
To use accessible parking stalls on campus, both a DMV-issued disabled parking permit and a UNO campus parking pass are required. Please contact UNO Parking Services to connect your DMV placard to your campus parking pass. Once this action is complete, you will be able to park in any designated accessible stall on campus, regardless of the lot type.
For students in need of temporary accessible parking, please contact your health care provider for assistance in requesting a temporary placard from the DMV.
For new and prospective students who have appointments with the Accessibility Services Center, there are two reserved parking stalls in the HK garage (Lot N.) Please contact ASC for instructions on how to utilize these stalls without being ticketed.
Campus Shuttle
The entire fleet of UNO shuttle buses on campus is accessible and can accommodate a wheelchair or other mobility device. No reservations are needed to use the campus shuttles.
The ASC also supports specific shuttle access routes for students who qualify. To learn more about the ASC shuttle, or to schedule a ride, please email unoaccessibility@unomaha.edu.
MavRide Program
The MavRIDE bus pass program gives Mavericks the ability to use their MavCARD as a bus pass on any Metro or ORBT route at any time, free of charge. Your MavCARD is activated as your MavRIDE bus pass if you are a current faculty/staff or a student actively taking classes.
MOBY rides are included in the MavRIDE Program. The MavCARD will work the same way on MOBY as it does on a Metro Bus. Before using MOBY, a MavCARD holder will need to meet eligibility requirements and become certified for the service.
Campus Access
Sign Language Interpretation
The ASC supports access to reasonable and appropriate accommodations, which in certain instances includes qualified interpreting services for Deaf and Hard of Hearing (HoH) individuals. This access extends to programs or activities conducted and sponsored by UNO on campus or across the state.
Please email Stephanie Vik svik@unomaha.edu with questions about interpreting services or to request an interpreter for a UNO-sponsored event.
Service Animals
A service animal is a dog (and in some cases, a miniature horse) that is specifically trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability.
Assistance animals, sometimes referred to as ESAs or emotional support animals, are not service animals.
