Professional sign language interpreters at GSU provide services
to students who are Deaf and hard-of-hearing. They take voiced English
information and interpret it into American Sign Language (ASL) and
also interpret ASL to voiced English. Sign language interpreting
is conducted in a variety of settings such as academic classes,
lectures, meetings with faculty and staff and other university-sponsored
events.
Oral Interpreters give a precise rendering of spoken words via
lip movements. This service assists those students who are deaf
or hard-of-hearing and read lips.
Sign Language and Oral Interpreters also consult with faculty and
staff, providing information regarding the role of the educational
interpreter in the classroom. GSU professional sign language interpreters
stay abreast of current issues and trends related to interpreting
and Deafness. Doing so allows them to be utilized as a resource
for the University, the surrounding community and the other educational
institutions.
