Meet our 2015 outstanding ASL students!
Krystal Adams
Hello. My name is Krystal Adams. I was born and raised right here in Ames, Iowa. I am currently a junior in Liberal Studies. I’ve had the good fortune of taking all the coursework in American Sign Language, and I am currently finishing up ASL 305- Classifiers & Depiction. At the completion of Fall 2015 I plan to move to Austin, Texas where there is a critical mass of Deaf people and a large Deaf Community where I can further develop my language and deepen my understanding of the American Deaf Culture.

Maria Doud
My name is Maria Doud and I am originally from Stuart, Iowa. I’m a Child, Adult, and Family Services major. I first became interested in ASL as a camp counselor for individuals with autism. Some of them use rudimentary signs to communicate and so I’m learning ASL for ease of communication.
