  College sued by Attorney General's Office for providing unskilled sign-language interpreters
Arizona, USA (AZ): The state Attorney General's Office is suing Pima Community College, charging it didn't provide the help a hearing-impaired student needed. Legal papers filed in Maricopa County Superior Court say the college did provide sign-language interpreters so that Stacey Duvall could understand what her instructors in the pharmacy technology program were saying. But Assistant Attorney General Sandra Kane said in at least two of the cases, Duvall could not understand the interpreters.
