Speech, Language and Hearing Services Department
Speech language pathology is one of the least diverse professions in the country. The Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences (SLHS) department has been implementing meaningful steps to address these inequities and create pathways for underrepresented students in our profession. You can help by paying for graduate school application fees for qualified underrepresented undergraduate students. Join us in creating a robust pipeline to graduate school for our amazing students.
