Hi Judge, looks like u had a nice time there. It makes sense, the name serves no purpose 'cept to that individual who was a former AGB President. Thanks.

Champ vlog, Judge! Really informative and the defense sounded really good. Makes sense.

Thanks for sharing!

Hugs!

Hi, Judge....

That's great vlog. I'm glad that RIT president agreed that AGBell plaque and name to be removed from Tower C. It's about time! *hands waving*

Happy Birthday!

Misha :D

Hi,

Thanks for sharing this with us, Dr Hurwitz should be a hero in discovering information and using this as a great defense that will provoke no argument. What a wise man!

I'm glad that it all worked out smoothly! What will they do next when they name a dorm?

Joey Baer said...

Thanks so much for sharing in ASL! Two things came in my mind:

1) Like Tayler said on other site, it is not OVER until it is over. I'd rather wait til we receive final word from RIT president and Board that it will be removed entirely.

2) WHAT IF AGBell contact RIT president this week and say they will donate $5 million to keep the name on that building. What do you and others say?

Judge said...

DrMzz, Unfortunately it had happened.

LaRonda, I don't know who should get credits for these defense lines but I must applaud those people (or, Alan) who did the homework!

Misha, thank you for wishes!

DeafMommie, let's focus one thing a time -- REMOVE the names entirely. Worry about the naming the building later!

JoeyBaer,
1) Very true. It's not over until it is over! Let us think optimistic.

2) Donation with $5 million, anything possible. Let's hope that AGB don't think of it! I understand that RIT President is very sensitive to NTID and the Deaf community's concerns.

Judge - Beautiful and well done!

Joey - True, who knows AGB is full of surprise sometimes...

now with the name off the building, we could focus on the next irritating thing:

Children named Alexander eating graham crackers shaped like bells.

Yes, I enjoyed your full-detailed news in ASL much better than any other Blog or Vlog in Deafread.

I felt strange when you said that RIT decided to name LBJ on the NTID main building because President LBJ signed the bill to create the birth of NTID in 1965. How interesting, Gallaudet University did not name Lincoln on any existing building on campus.

I would rather see the official removal letter that legally reomved the AGB plaque. Until our goal becomes reality, then we celebrate Long Live Deaf Revolution !!!

That is a very good news to hear that the process of remove it down WILL become reality. Interesting how they present reasons and why they should take it down. GOOD!!

Good information Judge. Personally, I will wait for the other shoe to drop.

Judge said...

DavidEnnis.. Yeah, you're right! Strange we live in!

Let's see how the Board of Trustees vote on this issue. I smell the victory on our side.

Hi Judge,
I really wished I could have heard what you are saying, but apparently something is wrong with the way my computer is configured. I can't hear anything when I play your video. You must be part French, like me, by the way you so expressively use your hands to talk. I could almost understand what you are saying just by watching them, but then, I'm really not French, I just said that. Are you laughing yet?

You are doing a great work for the deaf community at large and I hope that everyone doesn't get rubbed raw from people's insensitivity. I have usually found that rather than ill intent, it's either insensitivity founded in ignorance, or just plain stupidity which is the basis for what is often a hurtful thing. Forgive them, for they know not what they do.....
