[This is from the Silent Talk Conference]

Wayne, it is called the Galludet Academy. I know 2 kids form the Hebrew 
Institute for the Deaf and Exceptional Child here in Brooklyn that went 
there. In effect it is a very progressive idea where high school kids 
go to college classes while in their senior year of high school. 
Obviously this is a very special EXPENSIVE school. But the elite deaf 
teenager with a bit more enlightenment seems to be able to go there. In 
1987 when I helped send one kid there, there were only 78 students and 
it was an INTERNATIONAL student body. High standards for admission. And 
an excellent idea.
