Burdett, a 1929 graduate of the Utah School for the Deaf and a teacher there, vividly portrays the lives of Deaf students on the residential campus in Ogden over several decades. The film, capturing class trips, graduations, and other important campus events, serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history. Kenneth's film serves as a poignant reminder of the shared history of the Utah Deaf community, emphasizing the importance of preserving and sharing their unique heritage.
