One well-known school for hearing impaired is Gallaudet University. There are likely others.
Gallaudet University.
Gallaudet University for the Deaf opened in 1864, and it wasn't until 1988 that the university appointed its first deaf president, I. King Jordan. This means there was a span of 124 years between the university's founding and the appointment of a deaf president. The event sparked significant activism within the deaf community, leading to the "Deaf President Now" movement.
I. King Jordan was the first deaf president of Gallaudet University, a deaf college, in 1988. His deafness was caused by a motorcycle accident at age twenty-one.

Deaf PAH! is a program for deaf and hard of hearing people and offers courses for them. It is typically associated with the Lutheran Church. Pah! Day is celebrated in mid-March and commemorates the Gallaudet University Revolution of 1988, when college students and the deaf community shut down a university until a deaf individual was hired as the school's president. The students waved "Deaf Pah" signs and wore self-made paper hats in celebration.
Started with the University of Gallaudet (school for the deaf). Founded in 1864 located in Washington D.C.

The Deaf President Now (DPN) protest at Gallaudet University lasted for a week, from March 6 to March 13, 1988. The protest was led by Gallaudet students, faculty, staff, and alumni, demanding that a deaf president be appointed, rather than a hearing president. The protest ultimately resulted in the appointment of the university's first deaf president, I. King Jordan.
