They are FSSA leaders and keep in mind that the FSSA consists of the "Faculty, Staff, Students, and Alumni". So it is not unreasonable to expect the leaders of this group to shoulder the burden of the protest leadership. It would be a major disappointment if the FSSA thinks that its work is done. The FSSA is not only the students, but also grownups like Faculty, Staff and Alumni. They should, and probably will, continue to monitor the selection of the next President. And they shouldn't stop there, they should continue to ensure that their concerns are addressed such as audism, racism, shared governance and other issues that fueled the protest. Curious Eyes,

Think about that, please. Stereotypes that deaf people do not give a **** about society’s laws and code of conducts.

Ever since the Boston Tea Party, there were several things that changed: 1. Gallaudet University was formed. 2. Public media became widespread with instant news. 3. The internet was created and accepted in a widespread manner. They may earn it, but they should be wise enough to not publicly flaunt the rewards earned. Finally, I'm pretty amused that the protesters, who loudly proclaims to the very bitter end, that they are one of the neatest freaks around, provide such huge abundance of litter after just one day of 'partying.' How does that help with their public image, hmm?
