That U Toledo approach looks like an outstanding project and I'd love to
hear more about the technical details of deploying the software in a
virtual environment. If there is a link to project information, please
share!

Some of the items beg the question of whether virtual delivery is
sufficient. In other words, if a student needs a screenreader because they
are blind, they will need the screenreading software BEFORE they access the
virtual desktop, not after it. Are they using the OS-provided version as
that first step?
