Dear Board of Trustees
Re: Accountability to FSSA and Gallaudet Community or Dr Jane Kelleher Fernandes?
Given no-confidence votes by majority of faculty, staff, students, alumni and wider Deaf communities nationally and internationally and continued growing pressures to call upon Dr. Fernandes to resign, you as Board of Trustees have clearly failed to serve the best interests of Gallaudet University and its community. Unfortunately, you did bring Gallaudet University into unnecessary chaos and crisis.
Do you ever realize that you are accountable that Dr Jane Kellehner Fernandes is leading destructively Gallaudet University as to serve as leading international authority on higher post-secondary education institution in the field of education of deaf and accessibility issues into circus?
Since you have refused to listen to your very own Gallaudet community, are you preparing to let democratic citizens to get U.S. Secretary of Education and U.S. Congress to review Gallaudet University Board of Trustees leadership and management and possibly force you to resign or be fired or being liable for unrest, violence and crisis on Gallaudet campus?
Please reconsider to make a hounorable decision to have Dr Jane Fernandes to resign to restore and preserve the finest and prestigious Gallaudet University.

Dear FSSA and Friends of Gallaudet University
Unfortunately, current Board of Trustees seem to be in futile position by continuing not to listen to very own Gallaudet community nationally and internationally, I am sure that you already consult with your lawyers and elected U.S. Congress representatives to review creative options, including legal and civil strategies in getting new Board of Trustees, replacing current Board of Trustees and asking Dr. K. Feranandes to resign honourably to restore Gallaudet University into democratic, peace, stable and prosperous society nationally and internationally.
Furthermore, another option you may want to consider is to have our friends of Gallaudet University and FSSA to mobilize lobbing efforts and rallies at U.S. Congress offices across USA and US embassies and consulates across internationally along with international media coverage to call upon on the U.S. Secretary of Education and U.S. Congress to review Board of Trustees leadership and determine whether they are liable for unrest and crisis on Gallaudet community nationally and internationally.
Keeping up fighting and be with you to continue our struggles until Gallaudet’s crisis is resolved.
