Do people in HSLS sign?
Yes. All students are required to complete an American Sign Language (ASL) sequence through the Center for ASL Literacy (CASLL). Students are required to take a sequence of courses that focus on the use of American Sign Language in working with deaf clients. These tailored classes provide students with discipline-specific signs that are unique to audiology and speech-language sciences. These classes also provide students with praxis in communicating information that is often associated with speech and hearing assessments. These courses are team-taught by a deaf professional and an audiologist or speech-language scientist.
