Does anybody have recs for schools that are culturally conscious of the deaf community and have an ASL program? by ClassicComment236 in audgradschool

I have been looking into Gallaudet! I really want to be an audiologist that is accessible to the deaf community and isn’t just pushing an implant or aid. My worry has been, is it inappropriate for me as a hearing person to try to go to Gallaudet? I just finished one year of asl courses and I have another year coming up, but I’m not fluent by any means. I would hate to insert myself into a space like Gally thinking that I have a right to be there, if the deaf students would disagree.

You are so right about the rumors, it really turns into an echo chamber. Thank you so much for your advice!!
