[Athen] Mac Text to Speech ("Read Aloud") no longer available?

[Bourbeau, Maureen]

They moved it!  It's now under the Accessibility settings in the System Preferences.  It used to be under  the microphone icon/ dictation and speech.
Not sure if there is a new resource to point students towards.  I'm guessing there is.

When working with students with Macs, I've always sent them a link to the instructions for using their Macs to read short pieces, in addition to giving them Kurzweil.  I met with a student today, and went to send the link I usually use, and...it's a 404.  And all my searching on google only brings up years-old instructions for using the technology.

Has Apple suddenly removed this functionality from Mac OS?  I can't believe that they would have, but it appears to be gone.  Anyone have any information to say otherwise?
