Deputy Speaker, I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes that 15 extraordinary Gallaudet alumni have been chosen to be honored each month as Gallaudet University celebrates its sesquicentennial anniversary;
2) further notes that these individuals were nominated by the community and a selection committee of students, faculty, alumni and staff;
3) acknowledges that the Honourable Wilma Newhoudt-Druchen, who in 1999 became the first deaf woman to be elected to the South African Parliament, has been selected as Gallaudet University's Visionary Leader of the Month for November;
4) further acknowledges that she was selected in recognition of her extensive advocacy of both the deaf and disabled communities worldwide; and
5) congratulates her and wishes her well in her future endeavours.
Agreed to.
