A curtain of blue and yellow fringe fluttered in the wind as Professor Mava (aka Manuel Vazquez, ’06) sauntered onto the stage as drag queen Missy Take. Wearing a sequined silver top, neon green leggings, stiletto heels, and a wild wig of black hair, he welcomed the crowd outside of the Washburn Arts Center on May 3 to “Holy Sew,” a fashion show featuring the work his students created this semester in Art 495.01, “Special Topics: Fashion Design.”

Directed by Assistant Professor Dr. Geoffrey Whitebread, Gallaudet's Master of Public Administration Program has thrived, and now serves 50 students. About 60 percent of them are already professionals working in the field, while the other 40 percent are recent college graduates looking to launch their careers. This mix has made it important to build in flexibility, Whitebread notes, which is why the program offers both on-campus and fully online options and holds classes in the evenings, allowing students to balance the course work with jobs and family responsibilities. “It’s growing and growing fast because it meets students where they are,” says Lecturer Sean Maiwald, ’16.
