Identity issues: Who am I? Deaf? Hard of hearing? Oral?
How do the hearing students view me? Am I an individual or just another deaf student?
How do the other deaf students view me? Do they accept me and/or my communication mode?
How does my instructor view me? Equal expectations?

Communication IssuesCommunication Issues

class. Students would like to have mixed groups for group projects.
Interpreting: Students frustrated with not having enough interpreters to
cover all classes. Students really need interpreters who know the subject matter
well Notetaking:
Students need good notes with specific vocabulary carefully recorded.
C-Print: Some students prefer real-time print. Some do not want
interpreting.

Academic ReadinessAcademic Readiness
Some students have had a great deal of support from home and their schools.
Many students arrive at college and expect that the same services will be available here.
Because this is college and students are expected to be more independent, many students have problems with: Knowing how to study Knowing how to prioritize and organize Knowing how to manage their time.

Social lifeSocial life
Overwhelmed by a social life they have never experienced at home.
Difficulty balancing social opportunities with academic responsibilities.
Mainstreamed students face challenges dealing with deaf culture.
Feeling lonely and isolated even in a large group of deaf students. May need some interpersonal skills training May need to be involved in a club or activity May need some one on one counseling

Career concernsCareer concerns Students can face the challenge of realizing that the
major they thought they wanted is not what they really want.
Sometimes this is due to unrealistic and unsophisticated expectations of the major
Sometimes it is from a lack of preparation from their high school experiences.
Some students can feel concerned about their career choices and what will happen to them after they graduate. Will they be able to find employment? Will the hearing world welcome them into careers?
