Mission Statement/Goals

The ASL Club mission is to create a place for all students and those who seek knowledge and want to

raise awareness of American Sign Language, the Deaf Community, and Deaf Culture.

As the American Sign Language Club, our goals are to increase the opportunities for students to practice American Sign Language in settings outside of the

classroom, host events and trips relevant to students wishing to learn about American Sign Language and

the culture that surrounds it, and encourage fellowship among the Deaf, hard-of-hearing, and hearing.
