    The "Mainstreaming" Experience: "Isolated cases"?

    Huh? And I AM in one...? I think I was sending out the wrong message. I mean, I know some deaf people with immediate deaf families therefore they also have full access to ASL [just like me...] and they still struggle. That's not something I really understand. That's what I was saying.

    Time to start thinking about college..yikes!

    For Gallaudet... If you get a 24 or higher on the ACT, you'll be guaranteed 4 years of free tuition. Only if you keep your grades up during your years in Gallaudet, of course. So if you can achieve that score, you will have nothing to worry about.

However, I think this video applies to deaf kids with deaf parents as well. I think the video applies to some people I know too. My best...

    What is it like at Gallaudet University?

    Gallaudet University is...interesting. I am not a Gally student myself but I visited there a couple of months ago for the Academic Bowl competition. I also have a lot of friends who go there.

    The "Mainstreaming" Experience: "Isolated cases"?

    I know this is an old thread but I just saw the video. I think it's interesting. I am mainstreamed, ever since I was nine. (I am seventeen now.) My immediate family is deaf. I am profoundly deaf. I use sign at school and at home. I use interpreters all the time. But I don't feel like I am...
