Yiddish language decline

Here's a somewhat postive look at the situation - I have a friend who is a
Professor of German at Yale. Since his arrival there some years back, he has
intermittently taught Yiddish language and literature. This past year, the
University has made it a regular part of its language curriculum - granted, not
many students are going onto do graduate work yet, but the courses have become
much more popular.
