   Yeah, I agree that’s a better option to see more ASL media.

   You are 100% right Ron! Davila must drop the reprisals against all the students or he will not be able to govern. Without the students, Davila would not be President of Gallaudet.

   Everyone at Gallaudet agrees with what you are saying, but are afraid to say so publicly.

   Carl Pramuk must be fired from his job for Davila to be able to get support and cooperation from the students and faculty.

   100% + with you about Dr. Davila’s plans to recovery Gallaudet’s wounds but the strategy plans from 18 to 24 months are very short. Hope the supporters or teamworkers at Gallaudet will rapidly help him to accomplish each of his goals by changing,improving better programs, focusing deaf and hard of hearing students’future goals than hearing students because Gallaudet worries about accrediation more than deaf students so that is why Gallaudet has high percent of hearing students at the graduate school program. It is time to stop and change for the best of all deaf/HH students who want to be be teachers, social workers, counselors, etc. Most deaf students were turned down when they applied for the graduate school program because they were told that they were not qualified because of their poor in English. It has to be stopped. Make sense for Hearings to take required English courses. Deafies take required ASL courses. Hope BOT will give protesters a good news soon!!

   First of all, I love watching every of your ASLIized video presentations.. You have earned my utmost respect. Thank you for all of your hard work to make your vlog possible for all of us to watch. Keep it going!!

   You are !@#$%^ right on the target. We need Carl Pramuk removed and all reprisals waived or Gallaudet will never be able to heal to the fullest. Carl seem to be one of the few remaining “obstacles” to our Gallaudet healing process. Once he is removed, and all reprisals waived, then everyone can move forward with new energy and would be able to give full support to Davila. That’s the thing to do. If Pramuk continues under Davilla’s administration and if all reprisals still stand, then Davilla may never have enough support that he desperately needs to steer Gallaudet back on the righ track to better and brighter future. Like he said in his acceptance speech, he can’t do everything alone.

   So, my question is… does Davila have the power to fire or remnove Pramuk? Does Davila or BOT have the power to waive reprisal? We need to know the right person or committee otherwise we will bark at the wrong tree.

   If it is up to Davilla or BOT, then maybe we should ask FSSA to ask all deaf organizations from all over the country to write open letters to Davila and/or BOT plus posting them on the blogs or vlogs and express our concerns about Carl and that he has to go. We don’t need that “rotten apple” so it needs to be removed from (Galladet University) barrel. Carl, if you are a man enough and have dignity, please step down for the sake of Gallaudet University so everyone fully recovered. Thank you.

   I am still waiting for amnesty the reprisals. President Ford pardoned President Nixon for his crimes. People were upset at first. The nation was healing..thanks to President Ford. People were looking back and thanked Ford for the right thing to do. Now our Gally President can do the same thing. Please amnesty all the reprisals.. start the healing process. We are depending on BOTS to start the healing process. I am still waiting. I know I am not the only one.

   I agreed with Albert W about former President Ford’s comments on Nixon. Gallaudet President shall do the same thing. He and BOT shall ignore all the reprisals. They have to proceed working on “Gallaudet healing process”.
