I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this topic, but here goes.
I was talking with some friends a short time ago and they brought up a teacher of theirs and asked if I could get some input. They are in an ASL class and the teacher is deaf. (I'd like to note here that I have never met this teacher, so everything that follows is from the students and not my experiences) Anyway, this teacher is apparently ..unfriendly...toward the hearing world. She grows angry when the students talk about music or anything that involves hearing. She actually "yelled" at one student who came into class wearing headphones. The class had not started yet and the girl simply walked in wearing them headphones. She was told to never bring them into the classroom again or she'd be dropped from the class.
I was shocked, because I've never encountered anything like that before. Anyway, the students wanted to know how they should handle it...
