-- Deaf Shark Tank
NTID sponsored Deaf Shark competition. Of the top 4 designs,
three were deaf-related. One was ASL app for deaf babies;
other was three-flashing-light rear view mirror - to
alert deaf drivers of cops or fire trucks or ambulances.
The last one was an enhancement of Netflix captions.
Who won? The fourth design that was not deaf-related!
It was a magnetic skateboard.
-- priority of college presidents
Do keep in mind many deaf students attend Gallaudet
and NTID. Needs of the deaf students is the
priority at Gallaudet and NTID. This being
said, there are many, many others that attend
hearing colleges. A survey was taken of college
presidents to learn what their priorities are.
Needs of students is not a priority with them.
They are more concerned with finances and
operations. Needs of deaf students (as well
as of hearing students)? Their response is -
let our staff members take care of them!
