(which Gallaudet had to lose all their victories and the past championship over this player). It was [...]

Probation Does Not Mean Closure
Berke Outspoken There may be some young deaf teenagers out there who think Gallaudet University is closed, not just on probation. The reason why: last night, my son came to me and said "mom, did you know Gallaudet is closed?" I asked where did he hear that, and he said from a friend (who is heading for gallaudet btw). I explained the meaning of the word probation. Basically, I said [...]

My poor English skill due to being as an Deaf Oralist. Not...
Here I am ... I've often heard that many hearing educators mention ASL effects Deaf students' poor English skill. I prove this wrong. I grew up as a Deaf Oralist and my English skill was fairly poor! I often had a trouble understanding the English grammer rules. I was ashamed of myself as if I am not smart or a slow learner. I sometimes had to ask my sisters and even my mom to [...]

That particular brotherhood and sisterhood from Gallaudet
Butterfly, like me....Deaf I had to mention this.  I do not lose anything.  For many years, I have known them, the specific fraternity and sorority people.  They are members from Gallaudet's one fraternity and one sorority, to be specific.   I enjoyed them, BUT, there is indeed some kind of rule for the social system out in the world!!  Generally, I feel isolated from them specifically.  [...]

Gallaudet's probation?!?!
The Deaf Sherlock Howdy Fans!It's monday and I'm starting off with a BANG about Gallaudet's Probation from the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE). From what I understand, MSCHE rarely gives out a "probation" status to colleges. It's a pass or fail process on accreditation. In this case, it sounds more like Gallaudet has been left in a "LIMBO LAND" of [...]
