TAMPA TENT CITY - SUCCESS
With the recent annoucement of Dr. Jane K. Fernandes being terminated as the next President of Gallaudet, this gives a celebration for the future of Gallaudet.
With this said, it definitely was a blessing to have a gathering at the Lettuce State Park in Tampa, Florida yesterday after this event nearly being postponed to another time.
First, everyone got together who had opportunities to catch up with the latest news with the situation at Gallaudet, to meet new people as well as see old faces, as well as for students from the University of South Florida to put their signing skills to practice. Afterwards we had presenters discussing about the situation at Gallaudet, and finally we wrapped up the gathering and said our goodbyes. It was a success!
Bo shared his experiences about his recent trip to Gallaudet and the march to the Capital with other students, faculty, staff, alumni, parents, family members, and members of the Deaf community at large as well as reasons for Dr. Jane K. Fernandes' resignation.
Kim gave a moving presentation about her son's recent arrest on October 13th (Black Friday) which touched many of the participants at this rally. She asked for Dr. Jane K. Fernandes' resignation and reasons for such request.
TJ discussed about the need for the education of those who are not involved or aware of what is happening at Gallaudet and the 'push' for others to be involved so to make Gallaudet a better place for its' future.
Mary thanked everyone for attending the event as well as the importance of continuing to support Gallaudet.
Thank you for attending, and we're looking to have another event celebrating a better Gallaudet!

People should be wary of John Gournaris. He is not a honest man. He has hurt many people through deception. He is a counselor and should not be trusted.
