Shame On You, Jordan
RidorLIVE WASHINGTON, DC — Driving towards Gallaudet on 8th Street, nothing made me happier to see the bedsheets hanging from the rowhouses ridiculing Jane and Irving a block away from Gallaudet.  One reads:  Run Jane Run!  One reads:  Arrest Us?  Big Mistake!  One reads:  First they ignored us.  Then they ridiculed us.  Then they arrested us.  [...]

Alumni Rally Pictures
People of the Eye You can find the alumni rally pictures here (click on the galleries). I was still reeling, physically, emotionally, and spiritually, from what I saw last night. I guess I still am, but the atomosphere of the rally was one of fraternity and unity, and it helped me heal a little. It was especially nice to [...]

Gallaudet Protest may have cost more than 2 million dollars.
Ke5ter In the last post, I’ve pointed out that if the Board of Trustees decided to force JFK to resign, they’d have to pay her 2 million dollars as her lawyers cleverly advised her to put in the contract. Well, the Protest may have already cost Gallaudet more than 2 millions; however, it’s currently hypothetical [...] [...]

My Identity: Misunderstood
Banjo's World To this day, I find myself astonished that the deaf community continues to be one of the most misunderstood minorities. I believe it?s one of the most misunderstood minorities in North America and around the world. It?s due to the lack of awareness among the society.Yes, the Internet has brought so many deaf and hard-of-hearing people together. It has done us a lot of [...]

Alumni Take Over!
Deaf Kitchen Where do I begin? It was an emotional ride up 6th Street as I approached Gallaudet in the taxicab from the airport. Entering the 6th Street gate to the campus, everything seemed deserted. In fact, the campus seemed normal--a stark contrast to the grim events of 24 hours earlier. A few tidbits of interest:I couldn't get a room at the GUKCC. The lady at the front desk [...]

What happened to you, Tom?
DeafRead GUEST BLOGGERS To whom it may concern: Everywhere, I am reading & hearing (please forgive the pun) that everybody has a different agenda, and different reasons for being angry. In my opinion, I think that what everybody is failing to see is this- It is a fight against audism. ‘Anti-Audism’ itself seems to be the theme of this protest. [...]

DeafRead GUEST BLOGGERS TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES: I have always been proud to be an alumni member of Gallaudet Univesity but at this moment I am asking myself why should I? For instance, the BOT has not been representing the best interests of the univesity by not considering about the university.  THE STUDENTS ARE YOUR STAKEHOLDERS.  From my observation [...]
