Hello All,
My name is Sam (as in Samantha, but not.) I'm currently an ASL student in the program at Suffolk Community. As I'm reviewing information for Deaf Events to attend as required for Deaf Cultures Class, I see most, if not all events are located in Nassau County or NYC. Does anyone have insight on to why this is? Is Suffolk just not a "happening" place, or worse, not as in touch with the members of the Deaf Community as Nassau and NYC? Yes, Mill Neck and Lexington are out west, but Suffolk has Cleary and East Islip. So I have to wonder, why are there no community events in Suffolk? Or perhaps, I am just looking in the wrong places?
St. Joseph College in Patchogue has had some events through the ASL club on Wednesday evenings, but I'm look for Suffolk County as a community to offer events. Can anyone offer an explanation?
Thanks for your time,
Sam
