本文报道了昆士兰州一所大学的聋人和重听学生的经历，该大学提供了一个广泛的聋人学生支持计划。自该计划成立以来，已有72名在校学生和毕业生完成了一项关于他们在大学期间的经验，亮点，挑战和使用通信工具和支持服务的调查。调查结果表明，无论是定量和定性，学生重视他们收到的专业支持服务，虽然在访问学术课程的挑战仍然是许多学生。在社会因素这一重要领域，许多学生报告说，他们经常是第一次与其他聋人建立令人满意的友谊和归属感，而另一些学生则在一个听力正常的同龄人群体中感到社会孤立。总体而言，在格里菲斯就读了20年的聋哑和重听学生的毕业率很高，与其他大学生相比毫不逊色。
This article reports on the experiences of deaf and hard of hearing students at a Queensland university, which offers an extensive deaf student support program. Seventy‐two current students and graduates since the program’s inception twenty years ago completed a survey about their experiences, highlights, challenges and use of communication tools and support services at university. Findings indicate, both quantitatively and qualitatively, that students valued the specialised support services they received, although challenges in accessing the academic curriculum remained for many students. In the important area of social factors, many students reported enjoying satisfying friendships and a sense of belonging with other deaf people, often for the first time, while others experienced feelings of social isolation in a largely hearing peer group. Overall, deaf and hard of hearing students who had attended Griffith over the 20 years had a high rate of graduation, comparing favourably with other university students.
