For the fourth time in nineteen days, the Express (published by The Washington Post) quoted or linked to a DeafDC.com Blog! This morning’s excerpt was from Tom Willard’s Guest Blog, “A Few Ideas to End the Stalemate” suggesting term limits for Gallaudet Presidents. He also proposes that the selection of the next Gallaudet President include the participation of faculty, staff, students, and alumni along with Gallaudet Board of Trustee representatives.

If you don’t have access to today’s Express, download it here. Caution, though - it is a big PDF. Willard’s Blog was also included in the online version of the Express (second blurb).

Since the Gallaudet protests began again after a hiatus over the summer, Evan’s “Ensuring the Freedom to Communicate“, the Kaftans’ “Gallaudet Interim Provost Announced“, and Allison Kaftan’s “Worlds Apart: Divergences in Perspectives on the Protest” DeafDC.com Blogs have appeared in the Washington Post Express. The Express is one of the most widely read commuter newspapers in the DC Metro area! In addition, Chris Kaftan’s “A Centuries-Old Parallel to the Gallaudet Protest” and David Evans’ “Ensuring the Freedom to Communicate” DeafDC.com Blogs appeared in Marc Fisher’s popular Washington Post column.

Evidently, the editors over at the Express editors find that DeafDC.com is a good source of discussion on the Gallaudet protests. This exposure proves that DeafDC.com isn’t just any Blog; our Blogs are also being read by the hearing community and the media. Thanks to your support for our website!
