How is this not massively illegal? This is a clear ADA violation. I cannot see without glasses. Not like, things are a bit blurry, but like I have 20/800 vision that's correctable to 20/20 with glasses. Forcing me to take an exam without glasses is forcing me to fail an exam for a reason that has nothing to do with my academic abilities.
- seanc 5y agoYes, that's shocking. Many, many people are simply incapable of using a computer without glasses.
- coldcode 5y agoI can't, why is this even a requirement? Are they worried about a Google Glass like thing? Actually surprised they don't require you to take the test naked.
- magnetowasright 5y agoI’d say it’s because glasses can hide your eyes when the lenses can reflect light which means their “are they looking in a suspicious direction?” crap can’t work. I know you were joking about the naked thing, but another commenter above mentioned their girlfriend was told wearing a sleeveless top was ‘inappropriate’ and was asked to cover up. I just think that’s insane.
- NaturalPhallacy 5y agoWhy not have an electrified anal plug inserted that they can zap if you look away from the test while we're at it? This shit is crazy.
- seanc 5y agoMy guess would be so their algorithm can ID my face. Same reason I can't wear glasses in my passport photo.
