Students with disabilities have turned to CUNY in unprecedented numbers for the promise of a world class education and a better life, encouraged by the guarantees for equal access and opportunity of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act. Providing access to students with disabilities is one of CUNY's highest priorities. During the past decade, the number of students with disabilities attending The City University of New York has more than tripled.

Teaching Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Students
Sun, 2009/05/10 - 16:35 — jbellandApproximately 28 million Americans have some degree of hearing loss. Approximately 2 million are profoundly deaf. Individuals who have a severe or profound hearing loss that has existed since before they learned language will obviously have the most trouble with spoken language – as they have never heard it before. The first language for these and many other Americans may be American Sign Language (ASL). They must learn English as a second or even a third language.
