Comments: 
The information wall, at the entrance of the faculty, with directions to the classrooms is not accessible for blind people. However, the numbers of the classrooms are written both in numeric and Braille type in the rest of the floors. Handrails to the steps on the right side begin further than the actual stairs, therefore it might cause some trouble climbing the stairs. Also, there is quite a huge gap in the staircase between all the floors which is not very safe. However, the left side is easily accessed by handrails and we would encourange to stick with that side. The majority of the bathrooms doors have Braille writing. It is easy to navigate inside them, everything is within a reach of a hand. There is one elevator in the faculty, the button to call for it could be more highlighed, hard to push for the blind. Also, it is hard to distinguish the floor numbers inside the elevator. But the voice anouncement make it easier. Overall, the faculty of Political Science and Diplomacy of Vytautas Magnus university is friendly enough for the people with disabilities and is easily accessed.
