SLHS will be participating for the first time in the UCONN Gives campaign taking place beginning March 27-28, 2019. For 36 hours, all of UConn Nation will be coming together to support the university we love.

During those 36 hours, we will be raising money for the Department of Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences in honor of Dr. Mark Ross. Everyone has a mentor that they hold in high regard.  For me, Dr. Mark Ross, is the epitome of what a leader in the field of audiology should be.  He influenced my practice and research with everything from the WIPI to thoughts on earmolds, hearing aid fittings and the value of patient centered support groups.  There is not an area of rehabilitative audiology in which Mark has not been involved.

The department would like to honor Dr. Ross and all his accomplishments by setting up a fund that can be used in support of students in the Au.D. program.  Mark has touched so many of us in the field, we would like to acknowledge his valuable contribution in this way.

Get ready, #UConnNation. #UConnGives is BACK for year two! Put your paws in by supporting (school/college/unit) on March 27-28, 2019. (link) #AllPawsIn

Best, Kathy
