In this episode, I sit down with Stacey and Petra to talk about how we're training the next generation of interpreters and ASL practitioners. We dig into the exciting new direction at the University of Kansas, and the reframe that's happening in interpreter education.
Instead of treating ASL and Deaf Studies as a stepping stone to interpreting, what if we centered them as the real foundation? We also get into the joys and headaches of running a 4-year program, staffing and the very real barrier that tuition costs create.
