Well, I'm not thinking so much about them remembering
what they were taught. But the attitude towards sign
language will have changed. Instead of being somethiing
that is done by people with a disability, they will think
of ASL as the language of a different culture. Deaf people
won't have to be dealing with uninformed predjudice that
they have had to deal with in the past. That will be the
change, and the most important one.
