I’m a first year student in an interpreter preparation program and am just getting exposed to the deaf community. The coverage on the Gallaudet story was horrible. I asked many of my hearing friends about it and most had never even heard of Gallaudet. It’s just an outrage. I was trying to keep up with everything going on during the protest, but so much of it was posted in ASL, so it was hard to share with my hearing friends. The poll that you posted shows it all. It’s just sad. The hearing community just isn’t being given all of the information they need to make informed decisions.

That leaves the whole thing a mess.
