-- college forgets its rich deaf heritage
In the past (during the seventies) Delgado Community
College in New Orleans was one of the first junior
colleges in USA to give the deaf these educational
opportunities. It paved the way for other 2-year
colleges to do the same. Sad to say, this college
is being sued by deaf students for not providing
interpreters and not for accommodating their needs.
So sad to neglect its deaf heritage.
-- the deaf and esports
esports is hot nowadays; video players are talking
about it, and even people involved with pro sports
have taken strong interest in it. Is esports being
deaf-friendly? A deaf person, heavily involved with
video games, hinted that esports has a long way to
go in being deaf-friendly.
