-- council members that speak with backs facing the hard of hearing
In Durant, Oklahoma, a hard of hearing person (who can hear
with a hearing aid) scolded member of the town council during
its recent meeting. They were speaking with backs facing
that hard of hearing person. After she scolded them, people
in the room stood up and applauded the hard of hearing person!
-- a program for the deaf to become nurse aides
The Delaware County Community College, in Pennsylvania,
has offered certificates for 13 deaf students, studying
to become nurse aides. All 13 are now hoping to find
employment as nurse aides. This program is the first
of its kind to be offered in Pennsylvania. Not sure
if it is the nation's first such course.
