  • Deaf President Now (DPN) was a student protest in March 1988 at Gallaudet University, Washington, D.C. The protest began on March 6, 1988, when the Board of Trustees announced its decision to appoint a hearing candidate, Elizabeth Zinser, over the other Deaf candidates, Irving King Jordan and Harvey Corson, as its seventh president. Gallaudet students, backed by a number of alumni, staff, and faculty, shut down the campus. Protesters barricaded gates, burned effigies, and gave interviews to the press demanding four specific concessions from the Board. The protest ended on March 13, 1988, after all four demands were met including the appointment of I. King Jordan, a deaf person, as university president. (en)
  • La grève Deaf President Now a commencé le 6 mars 1988 et s'est complètement terminée le 13 mars 1988 à l'université Gallaudet. Depuis la création de l'université Gallaudet, l'unique université des sourds est toujours dirigée par des présidents entendants. Les sourds réclament un président sourd. Irving King Jordan, un doyen sourd de Gallaudet, est élu comme huitième président de l'université Gallaudet le 13 mars, ce qui met fin de la grève. (fr)

  • La Deaf Presidente Now (lett. Presidente Sordo Ora) era una protesta della comunità sorda statunitense per la richiesta di candidare un membro sordo che finora la Gallaudet University era amministrata dagli udenti (non sordi). La protesta durò dal 6 al 13 marzo del 1988. L'ultima presidentessa non sorda era Elisabeth Zinser. I candidati sordi per il seggio da presidente erano: Irving King Jordan (che di seguito venne eletto per la prima volta a coprire la carica come persona sorda) e Harvey Corson (era direttore sordo della Louisiana School for the Deaf). Con la protesta, Elisabeth Zinser, si dimisse l'11 marzo 1988 lasciando il seggio ad Irving King Jordan. (it)
