• "The professors seemed very student oriented." 

• "I had a wonderful experience getting my undergraduate degree here, and I wanted to continue to receive an exceptional education.  I think that the staff is very encouraging, knowledgeable, and friendly."  

• "I heard many positive comments given by former graduate students." 

• "I have heard from other people that UWSP was an excellent program, especially for Comm Dis."  

• "I loved the clinical setup."  

• "Great clinical focus and excellent professors."  

• "All of my friends recommended the program." 

• "Fun, friendly faculty, clinical focus, and great physical facility.  My undergrad was wonderful.  The faculty is very friendly and personable.  I didn't want to leave."  

• "I liked the opportunity to work with the schools and the hospital." 

• "Friendliness, connections between staff and students, support system for students, job placement, technology, location, etc."

• "I finally have the news we've been waiting for - Yes I've been selected as a participant for the ASHA Minority Student Leadership Program!"

We are very proud of our students' enthusiasm about their work with us.  Please take the time to review some of the positive recommendations from UWSP Comm Dis Alumni.  All comments below were included with these students' permission:

• "I am very proud of the education that I received in Point.  I knew my education was excellent.  The exposure to many different disorders and school/community settings was so important.  Please let the staff know that I appreciated all the long hours and reports that I had to write.  They did help" (C. Nimm, 2001).

• "Let everyone know that I have had so many compliments on my training from UW-Stevens Point, from staff and parents" (R. Kruse, 2003).

When employers interview and hire our graduates, we are proud to receive the following comments:

• "I had the pleasure of being on an interview team for our district.  We recently had five candidates about to graduate from UWSP.... We had a difficult decision determining which applicant to pick.  All of the candidates would have done well in the position.... I want to commend the program at UWSP for preparing the students so well.  It was certainly a well trained and knowledgeable group.  They presented themselves well and have obviously put a lot of time into learning the field.  Please pass along to your faculty and staff that they are doing a great job !!!! " (A. Kleinschmidt, Speech/Language Pathologist, Antigo School District).
