I have been having a few problems with a particular lecturer at Reading
(see attached message). I am trying to compose a reply and need your
help...any suggestions?
He will be top of my list for our Deaf Awareness Seminar!
Thanks
Rachel

Rachel,
There is a second year ESEA (Environmental Science Degree) student, X,
who is deaf (profoundly and pre-lingually deaf actually) and apparently
needs to have words in exam questions explained to him just
prior to the exam. One member of staff here, had to do this and
felt that he was explaining technical words that other students were being
expected to have understood from the lectures. We feel that we do not
extend such help to, for example, non native English speaking students who
have, in principle, just as much need to have such treatment.
