Our panels on Deaf legal advocacy and domestic violence in the Deaf community were successful!
 
Several from the community joined us and the discussions (particularly at the legal advocacy event) would have gone on forever if we had let them!
 
Many thanks to our panelists (listed alphabetically below) for taking the time to maneuver their way through campus to share their expertise:
   

Vonnie Basham
Ann Hon
Kent Kennedy
Faye Kuo
Mark Seeger
Randi Turner
Lucy Wood

P.S. Unfortunately, we were so engrossed in our discussions that we forgot to take pictures! (Smile)

Yeah, the maps are exactly the same on each flyer. This is in case anyone wants to save a flyer as a file and pass it on to their friends/family/coworkers/etc.
 
See you all soon!
