Great to see live captions in lectures/labs at @GCU_BIO even if Scottish accents sometimes give hilarious results 🤣 @CaledonianNews @GCUEngagement

Gentle reminder that the Sign Language Interpreter is there to help facilitate communication.
The interpreter isn't there because of the Deaf people. The interpreter is there because you don't sign.
