...professional school. The suggestion that we should avoid the heart of a liberal arts education merely because most students do not intend to remain in the academic world is ludicrous.

...impassioned contingent means something more troubling when it says Fernandes doesn't communicate well. Many who identify culturally as "big-D Deaf" learned American Sign Language before English. Fernandes did not. She grew up speaking English and says she didn't find her "path into the deaf culture" until she was 23. That's too late for some opponents.
