1. Here's a story about a construction vehicle being used to clear an entrance blocked by protestors. A few students suffered minor injuries.

2. Here's a transcript from the radio interview with a sociology chair and a student.

3. Protestors took their message to Congress, now so has the university.

4. And here's an interesting piece disputing the characterization of Gallaudet as the center of deaf culture in America. Thanks to Brendan for leaving this one in the comments.
