She initially wanted JKF to be president because she felt she could control her and have JKF appoint her as Provost. When, for some reason, that seemed unlikely, she turned.<BR/><BR/>The only unselfish thing MJ has done is tell the protestors whom were about to be arrested to not fight back, saving these reckless youth from getting injured<BR/><BR/>And yes, a hunger strike means no food, not a liquid diet of Boost and V8. It is a slap in the face of the people who have really undertaken and endured such techniques.Alumnanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35660741.post-1162080247179504522006-10-28T20:04:00.000-04:002006-10-28T20:04:00.000-04:00This is an insightful and thoughtful letter. Thank you very much for addressing the work that Jane Fernandes has done, and especially for bringing up the issue regarding hunger strikes. I too am also appalled that students would use this tactic towards an issue which to me does not seem worth dying for, nor stepping out in front of a bulldozer for.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35660741.post-1161886041264952672006-10-26T14:07:00.000-04:002006-10-26T14:07:00.000-04:00MJ is one of the "puppet masters" behind the protest.

You can forward it to patricia.kunkle@gallaudet.edu and she would be happy to forward it to the Board. It is a great piece of writing and the Board of Trustee will value that. Please be strong and stand what you really believe. JK will work with all the issues because she's learning about what's going on. She will make it becoming one of her agenda when she becomes the president.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35660741.post-1161821394307704892006-10-25T20:09:00.000-04:002006-10-25T20:09:00.000-04:00Do you know MJ who is ASL department teacher encouraged JK become president?

I don't think so, due to the minimal turnout in the afternoon.<BR/><BR/>Either that, or the students are smart enough to not put their education in jeopardy (2 weeks left till finals).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35660741.post-1161553035665951182006-10-22T17:37:00.000-04:002006-10-22T17:37:00.000-04:00Thank you Eileen for this excellent analysis. The points you make need to be seen by all. I am grateful to see thoughtful, concerned, and rationale discourse.... something there has been far too little off (thank heavens at least for this Blog). Please please continue to make these points heard.<BR/><BR/>My hat off also to One Hundred Fires for providing much need balance in the current crisis.Symphie Theiserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09755329653040011023noreply@blogger.com
