I am not sure that making dorms "beautiful and modern" is a concern or responsibility of taxpayers. I am sure it is nice for students though.

are you sure if money being spent on such renovation came from taxpayers?

No, it wasn't come from taxpayers, so it is come from students who paid to live in the dorm and Gally got revenue to renovate the dorms.

It does satisfied the student's complaint about the dorms are being outdated and need renovated.

Also, when federal funding goes to Gallaudet University, also cover on MSSD and KDES. The new MSSD dorm will funded with taxpayer (federal funding) to replace the aging dorms, all of 5 MSSD dorms were demolished due to bad structure and water leaking, so only left is girl dorm and the boys moved to Ballard North (formerly Cogswell Hall), so will not completed until around 2014.

Even if true, that is money that could be spent elsewhere. Priorities....

No, the federal funding goes to education and research, that it so nothing goes to dorm and boarding, except for MSSD dorm (that's high school students).

No, that's not my opinion and it was from Gallaudet University.

Gallaudet said it has nothing to do with priorities? That is a strange statement for a school to make.

The federal funding is ONLY goes to education and research, so Gally is on own for dorm and boarding.

The usage of federal funding is subject to strict rule by US Department of Education.

Assuming that is accurate, they would still have to set priorities for that spending, correct?

Board of Members are typically responsible for setting the priorities.... including 3 Congressmen
