Subject: [WebAIM] Teach Act?

Hello, esteemed list.

I am getting questions from my campus regarding the Teach Act (not the TEACH
Act) discussed here:
http://chronicle.com/blogs/wiredcampus/bill-would-require-instructional-tech
nology-to-be-accessible-to-all/48383?cid=wc&utm_source=wc&utm_medium=en.
Would it require something different that what universities are already
expected to do as clarified by the Dear Colleague Letter from the DOE and
DOJ in 2010?

Any guidance is welcome.
