Have fun practicing your sign language, learning ASL grammar, and expanding your vocabulary in the BYU ASL Club. Meet new people while learning a new language. Our club offers a wide variety of activities: vocabulary, fluency, Deaf history, Deaf culture games, and appreciation of Deaf community speakers, movies, and information. We have deaf panels where the students get to ask deaf students questions about sign language; we have learned church signs in the weeks preceding General Conference.
Arabic Club
The Arabic club helps the BYU community get better acquainted with our Arab students. We address misconceptions that people may have about Arabs and raise awareness about the rich culture, religions, and politics of the Arab Middle East.
Art History Association
The Art History Association helps BYU art history majors succeed by connecting them with other Art History students, faculty members, and art resources in the BYU/Provo community. The Art History Association's venues and events provide professional connections and open doors to your future. We also help members of the art history major connect with other members of the Department of Comparative Arts and Letters and the College of Humanities. We hope to introduce the BYU/Provo community to the discipline of art history and to promote the arts in Utah.
