We are talking about DPN which stands for "Deaf President Now," a protest organized by the student community of Gallaudet University, Washington D.C., to express their unconformity to the imposition for a non-deaf President of the University on March 6, 1988. The student community considered that there were many high level and qualified candidates to occupy that position. The Board named Elizabeth ZInzer, a lady who was not deaf, and the problems began.
