He was ousted by the Utah school board. No reason was given, but in 2009 he was appointed over the strong opposition of the Deaf Community. They felt he would suppress use of sign language in the school environment. Dedication: DeafDigest dedicates this edition to Calvin Philip Hailey, a long time deaf teacher at North Carolina School for the deaf, who departed us. After retirement, he did just retire – he stayed at the school to help establish the NCSD Historical Museum DeafDigest dedicates this edition to British deaf actor Hal Draper, who departed us. There are number of notable deaf actors in Great Britain, and he was among the elite in the group. DeafDigest dedicates this edition to Mervin Garretson, who departed us. He was a man with a long list of accomplishments in Deaf Education and in Deaf Politics. Such accomplishments are too long to squeeze into this edition, but his most notable one was – stepping in as a last minute interim executive director of NAD during its darkest moment in 1989. NAD was broke, and he was forced to lay off 10 employees just to restore financial stability. Mission accomplished, he then he sailed off into a long deserving retirement. DeafDigest dedicates this edition to John Bill Hudson, not deaf, who departed us. After a big time football career with University of Alabama and then a short time in the Canadian pros, he made Deaf Education his career – beginning at the Tennessee School for the deaf and then as superintendent at the South Dakota School for the Deaf and then at Kentucky School for the Deaf. Said a colleague: He was a “behind the scenes” kind of Superintendent, preferring that mode of administration to high visibility Top stories about the deaf: Kentucky requiring special license plates for deaf drivers? This the issue going on right now in the state. An outdoor hockey rink was built behind a home in Newfoundland. The homeowner, a father of a deaf son, wants to invite teams and players to come and play – as a fundraiser to create awareness of deafness in the Newfoundland community. McCormick & Schmick is a famous steak house chain. Are deaf employees in the chain being treated well? A deaf prep cook lost his job, despite his satisfactory evaluations. He filed a lawsuit with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, saying the chain made life miserable for him. The EEOC ruled in his favor, awarding him $47,814, and at the same time ordering the chain to follow the ADA regs. United States Senator Tom Harkin, Iowa, wants to replace the dollar bills with dollar coins. If he succeeds, then one group would benefit a lot from the change. It would be the deaf-blind; they would know, from the size, that it is a dollar coin as opposed to determining the denominations of paper bills. Heather Whitestone, a deaf woman, who won the Miss America pageant, was cited in a web posting as a positive example for Alexis Wineman. An autistic, she won the Miss Montana pageant. …………………………………………………….. The Holidays are a time of many community and family parties. Alcohol is a part of many of these events.

DeafDigest will not mention who the person is or what agency it was. A deaf CEO was not happy about a deaf employee. He and the deaf deputy CEO both agreed that the employee should be fired. The CEO wanted to be careful with words to inform the employee that he was to be fired during a private meeting between CEO, deputy CEO and the employee. During that private meeting, the CEO had to go to the restroom. When he came back, the employee was already fired by the deputy CEO (without CEO’s permission). The CEO was angry about it and also fired deputy CEO! - for ASL News version with captions, please visit: http://deafdigest.com/videos/deaf-ceo-firing-deaf-employee/ if you have iPad, click on top video; if you have another computer, click on bottom video …………………………………………….. ……………………………………………..

The need for separate programing at the mid-high school state is supported, in order to draw together the career related strands which have been previously infused into the total curriculum. The development of such an intensive separate summer program is described, and its emphasis on decision making in elements of self-awareness, career awareness, eci cational awareness, and economic awareness are discussed. Appended m, rials include a list of the program's advisory board and development team members, information from a survey completed by schools for the deaf of new career education materials, and an annotated bibliography of career education materials and resources for use with hearing impaired students.

    Special Collections and University Archives : University Libraries Clarke School for the Deaf Records 1866-2009 approximately 133 boxes (ca. 199 linear ft.) Call no.: MS 742 Collection overview With a $50,000 grant from the philanthropist John Clarke, Gardiner Green Hubbard founded the Clarke Institution for Deaf Mutes in 1867, a school predicated on the importance of acquiring oral skills for children with hearing loss. Opened in Northampton, Mass., under the direction of Harriet B. Rogers, Clarke differed philosophically from schools such as the American School for the Deaf where sign language was used for instruction, stressing speech-reading and speech as the primary methods of communication. With notable supporters such as Alexander Graham Bell, Clarence W. Barron, and Calvin Coolidge and his wife Grace (a former teacher), the school became a pioneer in training teachers in auditory and oral methods and in recognizing the importance of early intervention and mainstreaming children into neighborhood schools. Working in partnership with Smith College, Clarke began offering a master’s degree in Education of the Deaf in 1962. Known as the Clarke Schools for Hearing and Speech since 2010, the school has opened additional campuses in Boston (1995), Jacksonville (1996), New York (1999), and Philadelphia (2001). The records of the Clarke School offer rich documentation of the history of oral deaf education in the United States and insight into the experience of deafness in America. The collection includes extensive correspondence of school administrators and teachers, organizational materials, records of the school’s programs, and an essentially complete run of the school’s annual reports and other publications.

SPONS AGENCY Social and Rehabilitation Service (DHEW), Washington, D.C. Div. of Research and Demonstration Grants. PUB DATE Feb 72 NOTE 159p. EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC-$6.58 DESCRIPTORS Adolescents; *Aurally Handicapped; Educational Background; *Exceptional Child Research; Finger Spelling; *Language Development; *Manual Communication; Memory; *Oral Communication; Verbal Ability ABSTRACT Investigated were aspects Of language development (association, memory, comprehension, and production) in three groups (50 individuals per group) of deaf adolescents who were variously trained by the pure oral method, the combined oral-manual method, and the Rochester fingerspelling method. One hearing group was matched with the deaf in age, and another in comprehension of written language. All groups were reported to be equal on a verbal recognition memory test, but the deaf trained in the combined method showed poorer recall on the same test. The Noun Pairs Memory test showed all groups equal on the number correct and on most error categories, except that both hearing groups and the oral group imported more incorrect words from outside the test to complete the sentences. The orally trained deaf were reported to be more like both hearing groups in their comprehension of multi-meaning words and in their control over distracting associations when questions on meaning were asked. The orally trained deaf were alsofound to be similar to the hearing in their ability to select meaning and in choosing fewer associations when the multi-meaning words were presente0 in sentences.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will finda good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
