A college of Rochester Institute of Technology, the National Technical Institute for the Deaf welcomed its first class of students in 1968. Today more than 1,300 deaf and hard-of-hearing students from across the country and beyond attend NTID. Some students receive associate degrees, taught by teachers using ASL. About 40 percent of NTID students receive access services such as interpreting, classroom captioning or notetaking in one of the other colleges at RIT while pursuing bachelor or graduate degrees. NTID also has the oldest and largest program in American Sign Language interpretation. (http://www.ntid.rit.edu/aslie/). NTID also offers a master’s program in deaf education.
