I work for the public and would've LOVED an ASL class! It seems like an important part of the Liberal Arts education.

ASL is important to learn and should be a part of this campus!

Sign language should be offered to all students. We are in a time where ASL is becoming prominent in our society. Not offering ASL is limiting the knowledge of students.

It seems silly that W&M doesn't already offer ASL courses for credit. We should remedy this situation as soon as possible!

I really hope this happens!!! Initiating sign language on campus could be the portal to making William and Mary even more inclusive then it already is.

I agree that American Sign Language is a widely used legitimate language and should be taught at W&M. in teaching deaf culture, though, be inclusive of all methods of communication used across the U.S.
