I do think the word handicaps should be changed to disabilities UNLESS
there is guidance by the feds that we use this term. Even if there is
guidance or even a mandate that this outdated language be used, I believe
the Americans with Disabilities Act changed that language. I would need to
know when such guidance, if any, saying the word "handicap" be used was
written into the rules, to see if it pre- or post-dates the ADA.
