Freshman Hometown: Clarks Summit, PA Favorite Scranton Activity: I love going to the Italian Festival because the food is absolutely delicious. Why do you want to become an SLP? I want to be able to give people the help they need to effectively communicate with others. You can go so many places by being an SLP and obtain such an amazing job, that all of the hard work to get there will be worth it. Advice to class below you? My advice would be to always ask questions if you do not understand something. Do not be afraid to ask for help, such as in getting a tutor.
Antonia Russo
Sophomore Hometown: Stewartsville, NJ Favorite Scranton Activity: I like to walk around Lake Scranton and enjoy the scenery. I also enjoy going to Manning’s because their peanut butter ice cream is delicious. Why do you want to become an SLP? I want to help people feel confident enough in their ability to communicate with others effectively. I believe it is extremely rewarding profession and I’m excited to be apart of the field Advice to class below you? To the freshman class looking at your schedules for the first time, you may be overwhelmed, but don’t be. You will get through everything. Also make lots of notecards. If you are struggling in any of your classes or even if you want extra practice, get a tutor.
Gianna DelleRose
Junior Hometown: Highland Mills, NY Favorite Scranton Activity: I enjoy going to Nay Aug park. Why do you want to become an SLP? My brother went through 10 years of speech pathology and it was truly amazing to see the progress over the years. I want to be able to change and impact someone’s life. Advice to classes below you? Study ahead of time a little bit at a time. Cramming adds so much extra, unnecessary stress.
Q#1: Where did you go on your service trip? How long were you there? My service trip this year was to New Orleans, Louisiana. Our group was there for 1 week. Q#2: What did you do while on your trip? We worked with organizations that focused on restoration from Hurricane Sandy as well as the conservation of food and energy. Q#3: What was the greatest part of your experience? The greatest part of the trip was the opportunity to serve with individuals from schools across the country and see that although our beliefs and perspectives may be different, we were brought together through our service to the people of New Orleans. Q#4: Was there a specific moment that stood out to you from the trip? My favorite moment from the trip has to be hearing firsthand accounts from victims of Hurricane Sandy. Being able to see for myself how much devastation the storm caused & how much work is still left to do was such an eye-opening experience.
Jill Smith
First-Year Grad Hometown: Hawthorne, NJ Favorite Scranton Activity: I love to go exploring around Scranton, finding fun places such as Roba’s Farm and Lackawanna and Tobyhanna State parks. Why do you want to become an SLP? I have always had a passion for the medical field. SLP is such a vast and diverse field, allowing for me to pursue my dreams of working in a pediatric hospital. Advice to classes below you? Stay organized and manage your time wisely. Personally, purchasing a planner and writing down all of my assignments ahead of time kept me ahead. Don’t forget to have fun!
Erin Byrne
Second-Year Grad Hometown: Warwick, NY Favorite Scranton Activity: Go to Manning’s – their ice cream is the best! Why do you want to become an SLP? All my life, I have experienced the pleasure of working with people with special needs, and, with graduation in sight, I find myself so close to finally being able to give back to this beautiful community of people! Advice to classes below you? There will be times that this amazing program will challenge you more than you think you can handle. Know this: you can do it! Keep pushing forward, working hard, laugh with your clients and teachers, and RTFM!
Humans of CSD
Thank you to those who participated in our “In the
eyes of…” and “Humans of CSD” sections this month. We
love getting to know all of you better and becoming
an even closer-knit department!
How to Observe in the Clinic
Sign up to observe (sign-up sheet will be posted on the bulletin board above the Observation Station in the clinic prep room by Friday at noon each week)
If you have classes close to the observation times, you should be aware of the time constraints.
Arrive at least ten minutes early, so that you can speak with the clinician prior to the start of the session, ask any questions that you might have and fill out initial sections of the observation form.
Dress appropriately as you will be interacting with clinicians and families.
Get the appropriate forms (observation sheet)
Be quiet in the clinic area.
Keep belongings with you, not on the floor in the clinic area.
Ask the supervisor/clinician to get you a headset and chair.
Fill out the observation sheet while watching the session.
When the session is complete get the signature from both the supervisor and student clinician.
Welcome Back CDS students! Since MU Speech and Hearing Clinic will be open
for observations here are a few rules to follow to make your experience great!
Please be advised that you should not interrupt a clinician and/or supervisor to sign your sheet if they are speaking with the client and/or family member.
If you need to cancel your observation time, contact the supervisor at least one hour prior to the therapy session.
Always respect client confidentiality in and out of the clinic.
Students will be able to observe on the on-campus clinic starting September 25th. The
sign-up sheet will be posted Friday September 22th. Make sure to sign up for one
observation slot at a time on Friday. If additional spots are open the following
Monday, students may sign up for another observation opportunity at that time.
