A source told me that due to lack of enrollment is other factor that affect Gov. Rounds to shut down SDSD. Several deaf schools have been shutting around the nation as well.

Minnesota is very lucky that Governor Tim Pawlenty haven't close Minnesota State Academy for the Deaf (MSAD) which is located in Faribault, about 45 minutes south from Twin Cities. in 1980's Gov. Rudy Perpich attempted to shut down MSAD but after huge protest, he just basically gave up.
