Four members of the University of Arkansas chapter of the National Student Speech Language Hearing Association created a display to highlight the Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology at a meeting of the state association in Little Rock on Oct. 10-12.
The students included faculty profiles, information on the new Epley Center for Health Professions, student’s thoughts and admission requirements. The program is based in the College of Education and Health Professions.
“We all enjoyed listening to the different speakers and were surprised by the amount of knowledge we were able to apply from this semester’s classes to better understand their topics,” said Rebecca Smith, president of the student chapter. “We are looking forward to attending next year’s conference and hope to bring more members.”
