Yes, ASL is a language. Is it a foreign language? And, if it is declared a foreign language, that still doesn't guarantee it will be taught in all colleges. There are no colleges that teach all foreign languages. Suppose a college agrees that ASL is a language but that the college doesn't need another language added to its course selections. Then what?
Also, should ASL be taught at colleges to satisfy foreign language requirements, or to satisfy ADA requirements? Those are two totally separate issues.
Just wondering.
