Barbara White, a professor in the Department of Social Work, tackles the first part of "Snowmageddon 2010." As much as she enjoys the weather, Dr. White says, she looks forward to traveling to Costa Rica with the First Year Study Tour next month. While faculty and staff dig out their driveways at home, members of the Grounds crew have been hard at work clearing Gallaudet's roads, parking lots, and pathways. Thank you!
