New Fall 2008 Events

D.E.A.F. - UT — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 01:13:20 +0000

Hello all,

The new Fall 2008 Events have been conveniently compiled on a page titled “Events”, which you can find along the top of the page. This is to help those who might like to see all of the events together in one place, instead of looking at them all on separate links on our Facebook Page. We will keep this list updated as it goes along, and as events pass, they will be crossed out.

Hope this helps!

Welcome!

D.E.A.F. - UT — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 19:38:19 +0000

Hello all!

We would like to welcome you to Deaf Events And Friends (DEAF), formerly Students Advocating Deaf Awareness (SADA).

Our first meeting was on Wednesday, September 24 and it was a success! Pizza and drinks were provided, officers were introduced, and questions were asked and answered. Our next meeting is TBA, but we’ll inform you ASAP on this blog and on our Facebook Group Page as soon as we figure something out. We’ve learned a lot from the first meeting, so it can only get better!

Also, If you are interested in becoming an ASL tutor this semester, please e-mail us at our new address: UTDEAF08@yahoo.com

As your new blogmaster, I am currently updating all the pages to be current with Fall 2008. So far, I’ve updated our Events page (just click Events at the top) and our Officers page. Once we get tutor information, I will add that to the Tutor page.

So, in the meantime, consider us UNDER CONSTRUCTION and keep checking back at our Facebook Group Page as well as here to be informed!

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)

Maps for SADA’s Panels

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!
