Gallaudet’s main campus, affectionately known as Kendall Green, is a historic oasis nestled in the vibrant Northeast Washington, D.C. neighborhood. It encompasses 99 acres of a beautifully designed landscape and is a designated National Historic Landmark.

Students can often be found connecting in the visual light of the Sorenson Language and Communication Center, gathering on the iconic Olmsted Green, participating in over 30 student organizations, or cheering on our NCAA Division III Bison teams.
