College & Career Programs for Deaf Students. 1986 Edition.
Rawlings, Brenda W., Ed.; And Others
A guide to most of the U.S. and Canadian colleges that have special programs for deaf students is presented. In addition to helping students to select a postsecondary program, attention is directed to special services available and the career areas pursued by deaf students now enrolled. Information is provided for more than 130 colleges and universities, community colleges, and technical institutes. In addition to programs responsible for serving students from all 50 states and the U.S. territories, other programs are organized to serve students from several states or from within a school district. Programs are listed by five geographic regions. The following information is shown for all programs: program emphasis, name and address of the person to contact for more information, the date the program was established, the accreditations the program has earned, and the special services offered. The availability of 13 types of student services is covered in the institutional description and in a chart comparing all institutions. Additional institutional information includes: full-time enrollments, deaf students' residence status, student costs, type of institution, degrees awarded, admission requirements, preparatory activities, and majors of deaf students during 1985-1986.
