It sounds like WDW does a magical job. I recently moved from Little Rock, AR, where I attended the University of Arkansas at Little Rock and received my degree in Interpreting ASL/English. I lived there for nearly 6 years. During that time, I was able to meet and make friends with several members of the Deaf community. One friend in particular, who graduated from Gallaudet University, visited at length about the stories he heard while at Gallaudet concerning Deaf friend's experiences at WDW. In general, the experiences weren't positive.
In keeping things in perspective, it would have been many years ago that this would have taken place. Obviously, after reading your posts, WDW is doing a wonderful job today! WOW! Talk about high-tech. They go ALL out! Of course they do. It's DISNEY WORLD!
It is my dream to one day move to Orlando and work as an interpreter at WDW. lol No, really, I would do it in a heartbeat! lol If I am not able to achieve that particular goal, then, when I retire, I will move there and work as a CM. I'll be the old granny working at the Haunted Mansion. lol
Do we have any interpreters on the boards?
Thanks,
Kernden
