The vote ready to happen at GU

G'day Everyone.

In the next 24-72 hours, the massive vote is about to happen on the campus of Gallaudet University and for all the alumni across the nation and the World. History is about to be made again and hopefully, this time it will be a peaceful process.

So far, we have heard from Weiner, Rosen, and Stern. Yesterday and today, it has been Dr. Alan Hurwitz's turn to speak and make his case of why he should be President of Gallaudet University. Once his time to speak is over, the time for us, as Gallaudet University Community, begins to vote who should lead us into the 21st Century.

In my emails, it has been a mixed reaction among students and alumni of who they feel best to lead the GU Community. I, myself, feel that Rosa Rosen will get the nod. But that depends on the greater vote. Hopefully, the Board of Trustees will follow the campus community and make a wise selection.

Once the selection happens, the GU Community should expect a SMOOTH transition from the Davila era into the next president's era.

This should be a good month of October 2009.

Semper FI.
