This report is an outcome of a project designed to seek, screen, evaluate, describe, and disseminate highly effective approaches used by two-year colleges to serve students with significant disabilities. "Two-year colleges" included academic institutions, technical colleges, and vocational institutes. From a pool of 18 applicants, the project made site reviews of six schools. This volume describes the approach used by Hinds Community College (HCC), in Raymond, Mississippi, to support students who are deaf and hard-of-hearing. Established in 1986 through a joint agreement with the Mississippi Department of Rehabilitation services, Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing program at HCC provides support services to these students so that they will have an equal opportunity to enter and succeed in the college's academic, technical, and vocational fields of study and to engage in campus activities. The report discusses the mission, goals and objectives of HCC, significant features of the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing program, key factors that make the approach effective for students with significant disabilities, and evaluation results demonstrating the effectiveness of HCC's approach. Characteristics that are manifested in all six of the profiled schools are also listed, and an accompanying CD-ROM describes the projects. (CR)
