I consider David Holstius a pioneer and early champion of web accessibility. As a student employee at the MSU Resource Center for Persons with Disabilities, he helped synthesize many early web accessibility concepts into a statement of encouragement for campus web accessibility. He created and taught MSU’s first non-credit workshop on web accessibility ultimately helping many understand and embrace the importance of more accessible web information. His pioneering work ultimately grew into a university web accessibility policy which helps people with disabilities gain fuller access to online content. Thanks for your work at MSU David, your brilliance, dedication and persistence is something we still talk about today.
