Actually, Gallaudet warned Eastern High School that there was 750 seat capacity but Eastern chose to sell more than they can. If EHS wants to sell more than 750, they should be prepare an overflow room.
That’s what Gallaudet always did with their graduations.

Anyone know if the Gally PR office has issued a statement to say that the graduates aren’t deaf enough? Someone told me IKJ (vacationing in Italy, btw) said that the parents are just squabbling about what it means to view a graduation ceremony.

Sounds like a mistake made by Gallaudet, I remember last semester when a town hall meeting was called and the entire campus community of 2,000 plus were invited to Foster Auditorium that has a seating capacity of not even 200.

My high school did. You were given a limited amount of tickets for free and if you wanted more, you had to buy them.

How sad! I’ve never heard of any high school CHARGING for people to attend graduation ceremonies.

Someone needs to be fired for this fiasco.
