You might look into the job description of Interpreter for the Deaf.
Numerous high schools now accept American Sign Language as a fulfillment
of the foreign language requirement. Community colleges do train
interpreters of the deaf and for that you must have sign language
intructors. Gallaudet University most likely has a program for this,
too. Finally, the occupational outlook handbook is available on line
(tho I cannot quote the exact address from memory) and you might want to
look into the deaf gopher at kent state u. on the net for futher information.
i hope one of these leads will have the appropriate info for you
best,
