Hi, I am at that time in my life where I'm applying for colleges. One of the colleges I applied at, and got into was UC Riverside. They have examples of their disability services here: http://www.specialservices.ucr.edu/...for Parents of Students with Disabilities.pdf
Of course, I'm hard of hearing (otherwise why would I be posting here?). Under deaf, they list:
I never learned sign language, my parents wanted me to be mainstreamed, and part of that was never learning to sign. I'm a bit dubious to the quality of the notes as well, because I'm sure they're provided by other students.
In other academic environments, I have had access to CART, which was instrumental to my success. Does anyone know if they have anything like that at UCRiverside? I've tried emailing them with no response yet.
Thanks.

Students who are deaf cannot hear class lectures. Provision of sign language interpreters as an
accommodation gives students who are deaf access to the information discussed in the classroom at
nearly the same time it is presented. Students who are deaf are also provided with note-takers, even
though the lectures are interpreted. This is because it is virtually impossible to follow a signed lecture
and take notes at the same time.
