To the original OP-- I have met very few people (unless they are 60+) who got married after high school or were raised to believe this is the ideal situation. Most women(and men) I know are expected to at least finish college and get started on their career before they get married. I do have a...

Thanks guys! Checking it out!

Thanks dereksbicycles for getting back with me. I just wanted to clarify I want to get involved as an advocate making sure the ADA act is being followed(which I know it isn't always) getting more movie theatres to have captioning devices(but ultimately open captioning) and things like that...

First off to clarify I'm hoh. I was wondering what advocacy groups you guys would recommend for the deaf or hoh? By that I mean groups that are fighting for accommodations, equality etc not groups searching for a "cure" (ugh!) I already know basic ASL and have been taking a lot more classes...

Thanks, great thread:) I hate it when everyone agrees too (: especially to follow the Pied Piper like a pack of rats. And no I'm not referring to this site just life in general.

I do understand why people argue especially about situations where some people think this or that will "cure" the "deaf" because stuff like that is a real insult to me... But seriously this is the Internet why start slamming people personally? I understand if you know someone really well in...

Hey Jerid! Well I can say I have friends who went to UALR and loved it. But not majoring in ASL. I can say it is pretty:) but sadly my friends who went are now in their late 20s and early thirties not recently but I can tell you the drawback is it is a smaller town but the people are great...

This would be for undergrad, they don't do it for grad school (: no u are not too old hello lol! Better to find out now what you love and do it than live your life doing what you hate or what bores you. I would meet with a Lifestyle coach or career counselor first. Best of luck, you can do it (:

If you get stuck in Memphis, I do know that check with Vocational rehab and you can get 8 free semesters of college if you qualify. They also provide notetakers. This is just if you get stuck in Memphis by any chance (:

Well obviously many people do agree with the many signatures on the petition. By all means, I appreciate your insight (although not the selfish part, not true!) done :)

How is this selfish of me? I want more people to learn the language. I have finished my college education. I'm thinking of people learning it to communicate with others who can use ASL, and yes they are more likely to learn it if the can use it towards their degree. I know a lot of people who...

I will give you my perspective as to why I signed this petition and why I agree. First off, this an actual language. Many universities do not give college language credit for ASL. Therefore less people take it across the country, less people will be able to communicate with those who can only...

Have you seen the model Amber Rose? Her head isn't totally shaved( she has a very short hairdo, I mean minimal) and she really looks kickazz. She dresses to be noticed, has her own style. I would say go ahead and go for it. Now as far as employment goes, there will be companies who will see it...
