New link of GU article

Hello Gallaudetians and fellow Deaf community-


I believe that we have been very confused or fooled by Gallaudet Board of Trustees during the New President Search Process. I talked to few sources of mine, that they informed me that they never used students and faculty and staff for suggestions or ask them for ideas of candidates who would be perfect for the Gallaudet President Position.

Then when the announcement came and they selected Dr Alan Hurwitz as 10th President of Gallaudet University.

heres the link of this article that Hurwitz confessed to Deafnation, that he turned GU down 3 times till 4th time that he talked to the BOTs and PSAC.

DN: What was the turning point that made you decide to become a candidate for the presidency of Gallaudet University?

Hurwitz: The PSAC had contacted me three times already, but by the fourth time, I had a good talk with the search consultants and, eventually, with the PSAC chair. I was told it was not just the presidency of a university, but truly a call to national service. That impacted me, having been former president of the National Association of the Deaf. Gallaudet has a rich history and I’ve always been familiar with the university.
