MSHA MINORITY STUDENT LEADERSHIP PROGRAM

 

“The Minority Student Leadership Program (MSLP) provides mentoring for ethnic/minority students by professionals who are aware of the many challenges and benefits of being a minority in the profession of speech-language pathology and audiology.” The program allows minority students unique opportunities to explore, participate, and experience activities that are designed to facilitate leadership and future careers.

 

As MSHA reaches its 51 years of celebration, I share with you my pleasure of reflecting on the history of success of the MSHA Minority Student Leadership Program that has culminated into strong professional/personal bonds between many mentors and students in the state of Missouri. Keeping in mind the success of the past program, I would like to honor the legacy left behind by the previous chairs, students, and mentors of the MSLP.

 

In the fall of 2009, the University Departmental Chairs will be sent a formal notice regarding applications for the MSLP 2010! Please identify the minority graduate students and mentors in your program and encourage them to apply for this wonderful opportunity. Please note that the completed applications must be sent to Jayanti Ray by Friday, December 18, 2009. Please feel free to send in your questions or suggestions to jray@semo.edu.
