Description: Universities ought to accept American Sign Language as a secondary language to meet their secondary language requirements. It's a real language used in everyday life, especially by deaf and hard-of-hearing folks, and parts of the autistic community. Also, ASL interpretation is a job, and some people make a career out of it. So I think that Universities ought to encourage students to study American Sign Language, instead of treating it as lesser-than other languages. It's a matter of accessibility, and making the world a more inclusive place for people from different walks of life. I hope that this video inspires you to be the change that you want to be in the world, and advocate for a better future.
