NTID Tent City: Night Update
Tent City: Rochester This Evening, I wandered over campus (I have marginal contacts with people over on the dorm side ever since I moved to the RIT apartments) and decided to stop by RIT’s Tent City. Upon arrival, I met with the hardy individuals going mano a mano with Mother Nature– it was not as cold as the [...] [...]

UFG T-shirts
Deaf Bison Network There is no UFG T-shirts for order online YET! I do not know where but I am still trying to ask around. There are only UFG sweatshirts that you can order from Riverside for FSSA. I apologize since I receive few demands for that kind of T-shirts.

Hetty Says Bravo to the Gally Community
Riverside for FSSA Had a great time at Gally..was there for my 25th year class reunion and of course the protest!!  Contrary to media reports the rallies and protests were very peaceful!  Am impressed with students’ demeanor  Revered the cohesiveness...students, faculty, parents, supporters, and alumni banding together to participate in the rallies and protests.  The march to the [...]

Fernandes, Jordan, and Audism Mandates
Mishka Zena Since Fernandes claimed during the interview that she had been working on the audism for the last few years,  you may want to watch this. This had been made some time ago, long before the interview. Jesse Thomas on Audism Mandates & Trust | SignCasts Basically what Jesse Thomas said in the vlog reinforces what many students [...]

A Hearing Newcomer Sees Through Fernandes Supporter?s...
Mishka Zena I met this exceptionally intelligent and articulate young lady few weeks ago in another blog. She is currently taking an ASL course and very motivated to learn about deaf culture. I’ve always enjoyed our correspondence. Several days ago I came across her blog and as usual she got it pretty much pegged.  elizabeth   Sunday, October 15, 2006Reductio [...]

JANE LIES, Faculty, Staff, Students and Alumni Suffer!
Show Me Deaf Community Attention to Gallaudet University Board of Trustees: Where is your common sense in this crisis at Gallaudet University? You knew for months and months the real pulse of the Deaf community inside and outside of Gallaudet campus. You have seen a large marjority rejecting Jane Fernandes as one of the candidates. You knew it before you voted. [...]

BoT Requires Security Before Meeting on 10/28
Mishka Zena I am glad to hear that they are coming. I just wish it would be earlier, considering the nature of the crisis and the hunger strike of the students.  At least they are coming.  But I am struck by the fact it sounds like they are afraid to come on the campus.  The protesters are peaceful [...]

What ?Minority Report? is Fernandes referring to?
The GU Private Investigator In the previous posting of a Washington Post online article, Susan Kinzie disclosed more of what Fernandes said in her email to the BoT. One statement Fernandes made was: “I hope you will not sign a Minority Report. . .” What does having the BoT autographing a DVD copy of a pretty good sci-fi movie have to [...]

The Great Revolution
testing_the_truth The ?bald maffiozo? as we used to call Ulyanoff (aka Lenin) was the butcher of Eastern Europe, a dumb ideologue of the Soviet regime. People in my home country rose against their brutal yoke exactlly 50 years ago, in October 1956! I can smell the dictators and the personal cult they build around themselves from miles. Even if they are hiding in richly decorated [...]

Good for the Future of Gallaudet University?
Kalalau's Korner Let me reach to The Washington Post Online interview with President Designate Jane K. Fernandes. Gallaudet University is a bureaucrat?s heaven. I read her responses?from her qualification to her perspective of present campus unrest?and noticed how often she was asked to shoehorn every morsel of individual problem into a series of rigidly defined boxes?race, deafness, [...]

BoTs to Meet on Sunday, October 29th!
The GU Private Investigator The Washington Post Online is reporting that the Board of Trustees will meet on Sunday, October 29th, that is, if they can ensure the security that is needed, according to Brenda Brueggenman.  Security?! Apparently, Brenda’s afraid of those shooting threats, anarchists and terrorists that Jane has been babbling about lately. Excuse the cliches but if the Board [...]

BoT?s Paternalism
Mishka Zena I was at a few places where the boards of trustees were in the process of selecting new presidents or directors.  They definitely did far, far and far better jobs than the board of trustees at Gallaudet University.  They kept searching, searching and searching for a candidiate until nearly everyone is pleased with a particular [...]

Gally Should Follow American University
Mishka Zena American University has made reforms from the BOT level and all the way down to employee’s right to blow whistles on improper activities (a deterrent to management by intimidation culture). Gallaudet can benefit enormously from similiar reforms. This may explain how the current presidential selection process was flawed from the beginning. AU decided to reform [...]
