Most of Washington University's newer-buildings, as well as the more frequently-used ones, have bathrooms that are sufficiently handicapped-accessible. Still, some bathrooms - such as the men's room near to Rebstock 130 - seem particularly designed to make it easy on disabled users.
Extremely spacious for a one-seat restroom, the bathroom has well-placed bars (for lack of a more technical term) around the toilet, and a mirror which is slanted downward so that the physically (and vertically) challenged will have no trouble seeing their reflections. Additionally the sink is large, which is a convenience that can be appreciated by the able and disabled alike.
From an ambiance perspective, it is sub-par. It has the unwelcoming "sterile" feeling of many science-building bathrooms, and a hole in the ceiling has a distinct negative effect on the restroom's friendliness.
