On September 30, the College will be closed for National Day for Truth and Reconciliation as we pause to commemorate and honour the children who never returned home from residential schools and the Survivors, families and communities forever impacted. It’s also a time to learn about the many Calls to Action and commit ourselves to the work of reconciliation.

To honour this day, all NSCC flags will be at half-mast. We encourage our community to wear orange and learn more about the history of Mi'kma'ki, the land we live on today.

“I always wanted to learn American Sign Language (ASL) but never had the resources. When I moved to Nova Scotia in 2017, I made the tough decision to pursue another career, but didn't know where to start.

I saw that the nearest NSCC campus offered a 6-week ASL summer course and thought it was my chance to learn beginner ASL. I quickly fell in love with the language, culture and community.

Inspired by the experience, I enrolled in NSCC’s Deaf Studies program (now ASL Studies) and later completed the ASL/English Interpretation program. I love to represent the education I received and the memories I made at NSCC.

It was an honour to be an ASL interpreter at NSCC’s convocation ceremonies this past June, where I proudly wore my Alumni Pin. I’ve been fortunate to interpret at NSCC convocation ceremonies for the past 5 years.

Being part of something so much bigger than myself and cheering on the graduates is an incredible experience. It's encouraging to see a group of ambitious, determined and enthusiastic graduates cross the stage and enter the interpreter profession.

I wish there was more awareness of ASL (and other signed languages) as a separate, recognized language with its own grammar, structure and linguistic rules. Many people assume ASL is just signed English, but that can't be farther from the truth.

It's a rich and beautiful language that taps into a completely different way of communicating. ASL and its users deserve more recognition and respect in our predominantly hearing world.

Deaf culture is similarly a rich tapestry of history that not enough people know about. I encourage others to learn about Maritime Deaf culture and its roots in the province, as well as Deaf culture as a whole.”
