As far as colleges go, RIT offers ASL because of NTID (National Technical Institute for the Deaf). So it's nice to have both hearing and deaf people on campus to be able to communicate with each other.

My friend is hard of hearing and she has taught me quiet a bit of ASL. It was always funny to sign to her across the room, making all these big silent gestures followed by sudden bursts of LOUD laughters then having people look at us like we were crazy. She will be attending RIT in the fall of 2002 to study mechanical engineering. Although her school didn't have a robotics team, she got really interested when i told her about it. I hope she'll look more into FIRST and possibly get involved with a team there.
