Texas Woman's University has both undergraduate and graduate degrees leading to careers in deaf education. Students in both programs have opportunities to work with K12 teachers and students who are deaf/hard of hearing in the Texas Woman's University Future Classroom Lab (TWUFCL). The TWUFCL is a technology-rich learning environment where TWU students, teachers, and K12 students can have hands-on learning experiences with coding, robotics, and diverse computer opportunities. We have hosted events on the Denton campus of TWU, in K12 schools around the Metroplex, and have attended deaf education events throughout the state.

Students accompanying Dr. Smith for the event are undergraduate and graduate students hoping to work with deaf and hard of hearing individuals after graduation. They have all spent time in the TWUFCL and are well-verse in its technologies.

Brittany Hawthorne. I'm a freelance Deaf makeup artist for over 12 years. Beauty is so much more than just the clothes we wear, or the makeup we put on. It’s each person’s individual personality, the way we express ourselves, and what makes us feel unique.
