But now, at RIT, where over 10% of the student body is deaf/hoh, he has started wearing [hearing aids] because he no longer feels like the odd man out – and he tells me it is so much easier to get through life with them that he wishes he had worn them sooner. He goes to deaf culture events and has learned sign language and the school as a whole embraces the hard of hearing population - everyone signs along with their chants at hockey games etc. Anyhow, I won’t waste any more of everyone’s time talking about how much I love RIT and how awesome it has been for my son – it’s a really amazing school and I’d definitely recommend it hands down for kids with hearing issues but also for kids who are quirky/nerdy/different and never really felt like they fit anywhere…..because it’s the kind of school where almost everyone is like that and so everyone finally feels like they have found their people.
