[00:00:03.500]We're developing a proposal
[00:00:05.120]for a bilingual engineering program.
[00:00:07.590]This program is focused on heritage
[00:00:09.590]Spanish speakers in the state of Nebraska.
[00:00:11.850]That's a growing population,
[00:00:13.950]and it's taking what's historically viewed
[00:00:16.700]as a negative, right?
[00:00:17.830]You grew up in a ESL household,
[00:00:20.150]so you don't have great English skills,
[00:00:21.800]your ACT scores are not great,
[00:00:23.910]and instead we're saying it's a strength,
[00:00:26.050]because with a little extra work,
[00:00:27.750]you can emerge from the College of Engineering
[00:00:29.740]as a bilingual engineer,
[00:00:32.170]your salary goes up, you're in great demand.
