Access, not service, is protected by law
Many institutions struggle with complaints from deaf students regarding the nature and quality of services offered. Concerns include the quality of interpreter services provided, attempts to co-opt or corrupt the role of the interpreter, and complaints about the lack of institutional focus on deaf students. Under the law (§504 and the ADA), only access is protected. It is up to the individual schools to decide whether to provide other services based on the needs of the individual deaf or hard-of-hearing student—though they are not legally obligated to do so.

Pepnet 2 provided me with prompt, very helpful advising when I contacted them about an interpreter question. Their response was very thorough and informative. I recommend them to any higher education institution that needs information about best practices.
