Today, the American School for the Deaf held a ceremony to unveil the Gallaudet Memorial on their campus on West Hartford. Jean Linderman, who serves as the school's historian, invited me to attend -- she and I have been working together on the school's history on the Hill-- and today's ceremony was a very special event. The memorial, which had previously stood in front of the school's main building in Hartford, hasn't been seen in public since the school moved to West Hartford in 1921, so when the pulled the cover off of the memorial it was the first time it had been publicly displayed in over a century! Some more details will follow in subsequent posts, but it really was a thrill to be there today.
