Oh my Gallaudet!

You might have or have not heard about Gallaudet University's crisis for 9th president. It is driving me crazy everyday about this and I am not involving with this protest. I am just neutral between pro and con things. Sometimes, I do feel truly embarassed (sp?) in deaf community because of their civilization acts were sort of immature. My ( Read more... )

Of course, I know that you're not a fan of Gallaudet. You may agreed with me but I am not an anti-Gallaudet as well as you know.

Yes, that's part of Gallaudet students' reasons to eliminate (sp?) her, Jane. Well, "respect" but it is more likely to be "culture" without poking the deaf world with the oral world culture merging together..

Of course again, I wasn't surprising to hear from you about Gallaudet because I do know that you do not like Gallaudet at all. I don't mind either; whenever I am hearing your opinions because some of them that I did agree.

Yes, I saw/noticed that your family is involving with the Gallaudet's protest. I do not like to involve with any politic things or in the sides but I am in the middle because I do agree and disagree. Lisa, you know that you should ignore people's judgements because they do not have their rights to judge you. I hate judgements.

Thank you for giving me your opinions. I do appreciate it as well as I am glad to hear from you again..

Hmm, that's interesting how you did compare the Mecca to the Gallaudet as a similarity... I can see your point is and probably, you're right but nobody can predicts it. Deaf will be always deaf...

Yes, I do understand what you meant abuot judgement things and I do feel that way sometimes. However, I haven't seen or heard people's judgements on me but my instinct told me; but, I might be a paranoid again. I am proud to be a Deaf but I am not proud about Gallaudet's violence/harmful some behaviors what they did. You know that Deaf world is a minority and Hearing world is a majority. Whenever Deaf people did something then hearing people have tendency to blame/notice Deaf people's flaws because they are just minority. I hate that ideal of minority races/genders/disablities or elses. (that sucks to be minority...)

All right, I didn't want you to think I was an anti-Gallaudet or whatever. I'm glad that you did share your opinion with me. :)

So, how are you doing?

I know... Gallaudet is so called, the Mecca, because of that is the place for the Deaf community and Deaf language/culture there where all countries from the world come to Gallaudet to study there-diversity. Once and again, I know that you're talking about Gallaudet students and all Deaf people are high supporters for Gallaudet.

Yes, but they're the winners now.

Lisa, did I say that I'll force you to be a Gallaudetian? Never. However, I don't mind if we do have a debate about it but I wouldn't ever force you to go there. Again, I am not a recuiter for Gallaudet but a future student that's all.

In the another hand, Gallaudet students and all of Deaf peopple are dancing and cheering right now because we won the game that we did eliminate Jane.

..So, how are you????....
