[nfb-db] rules in the ASLlab

[M Lucca]

Hello Heather,

 

I do not believe the ASL Lab is discriminating against you. If you need
clarification, finger spell the word and ask the signer if you were correct.
However, if you do not know the alphabet, you should explain this to the
facilitators and identify some solutions.

Hello, I was wondering about the rules in the ASL lab!  They said I cant
talk in the lab at all, it is against the rules to speak!  So if I don't get
something, I cant ask to be sure!  Is that not against ADA because, I won't
have equal access to the lab! If I speak they can make me leave, they said I
can go to another room but, it won't be the lab!   Afterall I am blind and
if I cant ask about a sign, that seems a little unfair!  So how can a
colledge say this to me and other blind students taking ASL?    Heather
