Description
Did you know that although we often speak of “sign language” as though there is
just one, in fact sign language varies from culture to culture? This presentation by
members of one of Belmont’s newest student organizations will offer a brief overview
of the history of sign language in different cultures and what sign language looks like
in America today. Club members will also discuss how you can get involved in their
organization and learn to sign and read a bit of ALS yourself.
