Mizzou Law IT Pro Scott Greathouse, along with his team of fellow IT pros from schools and colleges across campus, won the Lee Henson Access Mizzou Group Award.
The IT Pros across campus play an essential role in supporting workplace accommodations for Mizzou faculty and staff. Working closely with the Office of Accessibility and ADA, these professionals help set up and maintain the assistive technologies and devices that make it possible for employees with disabilities to do their work effectively.
“Their support ranges from configuring monitors, docking stations and standing desks, to installing and updating assistive technology applications,” the nominator wrote. “They also provide guidance for faculty members with sensory disabilities, ensuring that tools function properly and meet individual needs. Their technical expertise and responsiveness make a significant difference.”
The key IT Pro members that sparked the nomination are Jeffrey Burrell, Wei Du, Joe Collins, Greg Rotert, Scott Greathouse and Ken England.
“I remember Lee and his efforts to bring attention to accessibility needs on our campus,” Rotert, support systems administrator, said. “Receiving the Lee Henson Access Mizzou Award is a meaningful reminder that accessibility work truly matters. Technology should never be a barrier, and working with ACT allows us to ensure it isn’t a burden for anyone. I’m proud to be part of the Division of IT, and this recognition motivates me to keep pushing for systems and setups that support all users.”
