There shouldn't even be any question about it! This is exactly what some of our young adults have already been doing. Society loves watching TV and they love watching Glee, let's give Becky the same opportunities as the others on the show! This show has raised positive Down syndrome awareness, let's keep it going. Join them on Twitter and let the show writers know you want to see Becky going to College too!
