AG BELL DORM AND PLAQUE2008 Text from theplaque: Only six years before his death,Alexander Graham Bell looked back over his amazing life and wrote: “Recognition of my work for and interest in the education of the deaf has always been more pleasing to me than even recognition of my work with thetelephone.” A brilliant and innovative teacher of the deaf, Bell dedicated agreat portion of his life tohelp eaf children develop their potential for listening, speaking, andlip- reading. Today, NTID emulates the ideals of which Alexander Grahamworked.
