<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#004080>I'm thinking about going on for my PhD in Applied Linguistics with a focus on ASL/Deaf Studies (or in ASL/Deaf Studies with a focus on Linguistics) ... I'm pretty flexible :D</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#004080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#004080>At any rate, I was wondering if anyone would be willing to share any advice on what I should (or shouldn't) do or be looking for from the various programs that are out there. I've got a BA in Linguistics and an MA in Learning & Technology. Applied linguistics seemed to be the viable, but I really don't want to end up with TESOL.</FONT></DIV>
