		<description>if Deafdc has a problem with my actions. they are more than welcome to ban me.  =) 

some ideas deserve belittlement, some idea's deserve the backlash, and sometimes people are just mean.

		<description>Punky, your comments are Free Speech.  The problem is the policy.  If DeafDC has no intention of "not tolerating" commenters such as you (not people who disagree but people who bash/flame others with hostile comments) why have the policy at all?  Because of that policy people who write here have the right to expect tehy WONT be flamed.  By not protecting them, DeafDC destroys that expectation.  If you want to bash and flame go to a site where you aren't violating that policy.</description>

		<description>I wish you would start ENFORCING that policy!  When you leave rude/"attack the person" comments up without deleting them, the quality of the whole site suffers.</description>

		<description>Jane you made excellent points. The main function of Gallaudet is education. If education fails here, then there is no reason to maintain a very expensive and wasteful institution like Gallaudet. It is too bad that -- according to the good ole' colony mentality -- Gallaudet is considered as hunter's paradise for high money and no serious work, a way of easy life by many. 

It is vital that the educational function and all other functions be separated and handled separately. Education should be the number one priority. Everything should be subjected to scrutiny about how they support quality higher education. If they do not support it, then they should be dismantled. If federal funding starts to decline, wasteful non-educational functions should be abandoned first.

If some extreme individualistic reperesentatives of minorities are not loyal and work against the educational excellence at Gallaudet University, then we should let them know, that they might be minding their special business at the wrong place.</description>
