Interesting chart. Part of the reason I majored in accounting was that the school of business did not require a foreign language. I guess that is a thing of the ancient past now.
But wouldn't it be easier to make the college kids become fluent in Klingon? That way they can get a head-start at a younger age.

I’ve actually heard someone use ze and zir. Every time I hear ze, I think that person is trying to do a fake French or German accent. When I hear zir, I look around for a 1930s “Flash Gordon” villain.
