	Thank you; I sent this to a deaf friend who has a caseload of
independent living clients one of whom may someday want to go to medical
school.

Interesting development

Just wanted to share this outcome with everyone. 

Thoughts?

Inside Higher Ed reported on Monday, "After four years of legal battles, a
hearing-impaired student has won the court order he sought to force
Creighton University's medical school to provide specific accommodations
that he says will allow him to succeed academically. U.S. District Judge
Laurie Smith Camp on Friday ordered Creighton to provide Michael S. Argenyi
with Communication Access Real-time Transcription (CART) and sign-supported
oral interpreters. The CART service creates transcripts that one can read on
a computer. Angenyi does not know American Sign Language, but has used these
other methods to succeed academically."
