The CDS Department would like to congratulate Grace Liu for being chosen for the Minority Student Leadership Program (MSLP) Class of 2009. The MSLP is a leadership development program established for undergraduate seniors, Master's students, or Au.D. students who are enrolled in communication sciences and disorders programs and Ph.D. students who are pursuing a research doctoral degree. The purpose of this award is to recruit and retain racial/ethnic minorities that have been historically under-represented in the professions of audiology and speech-language pathology, to provide focused educational programming and activities to build and enhance leadership skills, to provide an understanding of how the association works, and to provide an opportunity for program participants to interact with leaders in the professions of audiology, speech-language pathology, and speech, language, and hearing sciences. The recipients of this award received complimentary ASHA 2009 Convention registration in New Orleans, Louisiana which will take place from November 17-22.
