IPSAC Develops Call for Nominations and establishes timeline and processNovember 20, 2006Dear campus community members and alumni,The Interim Presidential Search Advisory Committee (IPSAC) had its first meeting on November 17th from 4 pm to 9 pm.

Dr. Joseph Innes is also applying.

All men????
November 20th, 2006 at 11:45 am
what about women?
laurene (gallimore) simms
she’s a favorite with a variety of constituencies. even before ikj decided to retire, people were joyfully imagining laurene as the next prez. for more info see http://www.thetactilemind.com/weekly/archives/ttmw24.txt
carol padden
she would have to take a long sabbatical from UCSD, but she might be interested
more?

I don’t think Alan Hurwitz would want to give up his cushy job at NTID/RIT for a temp job at Gallaudet.
Be realistic here.
November 20th, 2006 at 12:07 pm
Will the interim president be eligible to apply for the permanent position? That could have a lot of bearing on who becomes the interim president. In the meantime, I don’t see the motivation for good folks who are currently in good jobs not on the Gallaudet campus to take a leave of absence to assume the interim president???
November 20th, 2006 at 12:13 pm
My first endorsement goes for Dr. Mervin Garretson; my second goes for Dr.Glenn Anderson; my third
goes for Dr Alan Hurtwitz. I have known Dr. Garretson since I was 8 years old. He is the most top-notch
of the three.

I realized that there are many wonderful people for this position. However, I really think the best person to handle everything-the healing proces, the connections with Congress that Gallaudet will need to re-store the loss of creditblity with both the public and Congress, etc.etc is Bob Davila (as the head of OSERS, for example, he worked with members of Congress almost everyday-they respect him even today).
Please keep in mind that this appointment is short term, and that we really need someone with honor, someone who all sides can say that they will be willing to work with. In my mind, that is Dr. Davila.
None of the other candiates
can match Dr. Davila in terms of prue expeirnce. Some come close-but they have one or two lacking in comparision to Dr. Davila.
And finally, he has done a woderful job at every place he has work at-he’s really succeded at every place he has worked. He’s really good with people.

Dr. Garreston has stated that he strongly supports Dr. Davila. I read some where (I don’t remember) that Dr. Garreston has stated that he will not apply for any position at Gallaudet. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Old Friend:
The BoT has stated that the person who is selected for this position will not be able to apply for the pernmament posiiton (please see the call for this position on GUFSSA web site).

One more thing:
Carol Padden is the wife of Tom Humpries (I believe). I do’nt think many people will be happy with her as the President (temp). It’s unfair in a way- but true.

To Elisabeth:
How do you know: those names will be possible interim president. How did you find out? Can you prove us?
November 20th, 2006 at 12:46 pm
Dr. Corson won’t be good president at Gallaudet University. He left American School for the deaf, heard the rumors that he broke the contracts with American School for the Deaf for President.
I heard that he didn’t do well in two other deaf schools too.
November 20th, 2006 at 12:54 pm
My friend told me that Dr. Corson was fired from his supertindent job at American School for Deaf because he broke 15 year contract with school.
November 20th, 2006 at 1:18 pm
Gally Alumni,
I said possible. No way am I implying that they are going to apply. We are just discussing about the possibilities.
November 20th, 2006 at 2:25 pm
I would like to nominate Dr Padd Laddy to be President of Gallaudet University
November 20th, 2006 at 2:37 pm
Dr. Corson is wrong person for the job. My experince with him in A.S.D. (American School for the Deaf)
He decided to retire early, he agreed to work 15 years. This shows he has no loyalty. (he eventually got fired due of this)
Plus whats more I have seen him hiring some baloney postions for his friends.
and also he has spent lots lots $$$$.. has minus the school budget.
oh by the way, he was fired at Lousiana School for the Deaf, and Kentucky School for the Deaf as being president..
one thing I can say if HE got FIRED from THREE Deaf schools, therefore he cant run Gallaudet.
oh please check his background infomation before you ever hire him..
PLUSSS – he was rejected as being president in 1988! Jordan whupped his ass.
I do not THINK Gallaudet need someone like him. WE need BETTER.
AND ALSO Dr.Robert Davila is not good IDEA!
BE CAREFUL he might turn gallaudet to TOTAL COMMUICATION. its not what we want, we want- ASL not total communication!!!!!
good luck, Gallaudet!
November 20th, 2006 at 2:45 pm
Mishka Zena,
Thank you for explaining. I understand now.
I am not surprised about Dr COrson who was fired at ASD.
I would say there are three ppl good leadership that I know of. They are Dr Glenn Anderson, Dr Alan Hurtwitz, and Dr Stephen Weiner.
However, they will not be official becoming premanent president, but one of them will be become an interim president. It will be difficulty to be selected to become permanent president from outside of the U.S. in the future. We have to wait and see who will be permanent president for Gallaudet Univ. next year, in my opinion. However, I may be wrong! Who knows.
November 20th, 2006 at 3:22 pm
may I ask: aside from that acusation made by ASD and gallaudet alumni that Dr. davili will turn galaudet into Total Comm.(a thought that really does not have any basis) what is wrong with Dr. Davila? What Gallaudet needs right now is not someone who promote prue Deaf culture and ASL…What we need now is a good administartor…someone who can begin the healing process to Congress and others and us. The job is only for (at the most) 18 months. This will give us alot of time to choose a person who will be one for us…a true deaf person…one who shares the same values and philosophy. Right now, though, we need some one like Dr. Davila. I am even hearing that other persons ( well-known deaf perosns)are ready to support Dr. Davila if he is nonminated.
I don’t know…but I think we should be grateful if he agrees to be the intierm president.
Please consider this: Merv Garreston, a truely american deaf icon, is supporting Dr. Davila. That should speak volumes.

and yes- I’ve mispelled many words in th eprevoius statement -this is because my keyboard is getting stuck!

November 20th, 2006 at 10:13 pm
True ASL…True immerged in the Deaf community…cherish values of Deaf culture…How about appoint Donalda Ammons, MJ, Lynn Jacowbicz, Steve Weiner, Joey Baer, Raymond Merritt, Jeff Lewis…. to be interim prez or will they run to be the next President of Gallaudet University?
November 21st, 2006 at 1:06 am
Laurene Simms would be fantastic!

To Deafhood in #15:
Paddy Ladd is an Englishman. Were he an American, he would have had to have some academically administrative experience.
November 21st, 2006 at 7:54 am
Dr Steve Weiner will not be able to apply for the permante position if he gets appointed as the temp. president- that’s in the Bot announcemnt. As I recalled:he was a finalsit for the President in May. If he still wants the job- he should apply for it whenever they annouce it. The others are full time faculty-or close to it- and I don’t believe they will leave thier jobs for a temporay position.

November 21st, 2006 at 2:44 pm
Who are Dr. Laurene Gallimore, John Lee Clark and Dirksen Bauman? Deaf people are nominations them and can you tell me who are they?
Thank you.
November 21st, 2006 at 6:32 pm
You got it right. Carol Padden is married to Tom Humphries and has been with him for a long time. I see nothing wrong with Roz Rosen
As I understand it her credentials are very very good.Thats correct that many prominent deaf professionals will support Dr Davila
November 26th, 2006 at 6:54 pm
why not you ask Dr. Davila if he supports BI-BI philosophy or not?
and have fun.
