We took our first field trip of the year to Pima Community College East Campus. Last year when we went to PCC we took a dozen students. This year the program has more than doubled!
They gave us a tour of the Student Services area and explained how accommodations are different at the college level. Program Specialist Jane Irey talked about how students who are deaf or hard of hearing work with interpreters and about careers in American Sign Language interpreting.
Then we headed over to the Sign Lab in the library. Smittie Davison shared her language and culture with us. We learned some new signs and got a glimpse into Deaf culture.
Just like last year, we had a great time and enjoyed the hospitality of our friends at the East Campus of Pima Community College. Thanks again, ladies!!
