ASL: Faculty dinner and WSD

The end of the semester is just around the corner and what a semester it has been! There have been a lot of puzzles recently and the number of puzzles completed each week keeps increasing the closer we get to finals. I wonder how many will accumulate on the floor before we are drowning in puzzle pieces?  
In November the LLC had a Faculty Dinner with the ASL Department. There were three of the ASL teachers there and we had a great time eating together and playing a few games. It really helps to meet with the professors outside of the classroom and see that they are fun people and not just teachers that lecture at us all the time. We are thinking about doing another dinner next semester and hopefully we can find a day that even more of the teachers will be able to attend.  
The last day of classes is December 14th and that night the LLC will be going to Delevan to the Wisconsin School for the Deaf to see their winter performance: It Happened at WSD. Everyone is looking forward to visiting the school and seeing what it is like. They are even more excited for classes to be over and watching a play is a great way to celebrate that. Until then, the residents of the ASL LLC are focused on school and trying to keep the ever-increasing list of homework assignments at a reasonable level. People are congregating in the lounge to get help from others and there are partners scattered all over the floor working on their Deaf Culture final presentations.  
Only three weeks left and then it is time to say goodbye for a whole month! It will be great to have some time off but then it is back to Sandburg to start all over again for the spring semester.
