[QUOTE=villagetinker;1328437]HenryK, you beat me to the list, thank you.
It is too bad that there was no middle ground on this, for example, having a few sign language personnel available for classes IF REQUESTED, or something similar. I know my wife is very disappointed as she had just signed up for the second and third classes for some art classes. I had looked at several classes, and was considering teaching 1 or 2 classes, OH WELL.
Response to all of this. Thanks all for your input here on TOTV. OK, I was teaching Engineering Classes in California. Not to toot my own horn but consider this: There would always be a Sign Person in the room during certain lectures. For each class, I would make up "Extra Info" Sheets. This meant, hints on all homework, a short clarification of all lectures on a separate piece of paper, I would give those to the Interpreter and also file them in a "Read Only Folder" at the library, any student could read them, but the impaired students always thanked me for them. My office hours were open extra time for any impaired student and the Interpreter. My syllabus clearly defined every homework assignment, every quiz and every test. The syllabus was handed out first day of class, to the student(s) and to the Interpreter and I loaned a text on the subject to the Interpreter. I assure you this worked fine. One student from Mexico assured me his family were very high level in Soltillo Coahuila and he insisted that I keep his address and offered me to visit and really have a good time with my wife at their home, anytime. I still have that address but did not go there. This was not a bribe, he did this only after final grades were submitted. I had several ADA students and in fact the Dean sort of edged them to me for their coursework. You can make this work, I do believe.
