Back Issue: June 3, 2005 | The commitment of an important group of Gallaudet supporters continues to make the dream of a college education a reality for a growing number of individuals from the global deaf community. These special people were recognized for their time and financial assistance at this year's Friends of Gallaudet reception, held May 11 on the House One lawn. On hand to thank the friends for the time and financial assistance they have given to make it possible for international students—which this year represented 48 countries—to receive the benefits of a Gallaudet education, were President Jordan, Linda Jordan, Board of Trustees Chair Glenn Anderson, Board of Associates Chair John Yeh, and Nickson Kakiri, from Kenya, a member of the Class of '05 and the 2003 recipient of the World Deaf Leadership Scholar Fund.
