  Lawsuit #1 for lack of interpreters
Utah, USA (USU): Ellen O'Hara wants to graduate in two years with her master's degree. That dream might not come true. The USU junior majoring in elementary education and deaf education is almost deaf herself. She said she finds it hard to be competitive in her classes when she doesn't have an interpreter and notetaker and often feels isolated from her classmates. This is one of the reasons she and 11 other students and former students filed a lawsuit against USU for discrimination.
