USHA Conference & Trivia Bowl 2017

Attention university advisors, supervisors, & student leaders of associated communication disorders programs and NSSLHA & SAA chapters in Utah,

The Utah Speech Language & Hearing Association (USHA) Board would like to extend this invitation to students enrolled in undergraduate CSD and graduate SLP, AuD, & PhD programs to attend this year's annual:

2017 USHA Conference Trivia Bowl
Thursday, March 2, 2017
4:45pm to 6:00pm
@ the Salt Lake Marriott Downtown at City Creek - Conference Room TBD
75 S W Temple, Salt Lake City, UT 84101

Students are also strongly encouraged to attend the annual USHA conference which hosts the trivia bowl http://www.ushaonline.net/page-1539529. Early registration ends online this Sunday, February 19 - and USHA student members receive a discount ($10 annual membership) http://www.ushaonline.net/event-2422815. If your students cannot attend the conference however, registration is NOT required for participation in the Trivia Bowl Thursday evening.

Students and alumni from the 3 prominent communication disorder program schools (BYU, UofU, & USU) are invited to come together to compete using their knowledge of information and skills items typically addressed on the SLP & AuD Praxis exams required for ASHA certification. Last year we had a great turn out from all 3 schools, and the UofU barely beat out BYU as the 2016 champions. Its time for the Aggies or Cougars to step it up in the Ute's hometown.

Please invite your students to come for some fun communication science disorders review while also taking part in an opportunity to network with students and alumni from other programs in an interactive way. If you could forward this information to make your students aware, the USHA Board would greatly appreciate it.

We welcome and invite as many students from each school to attend as possible to show their collective knowledge and expertise! If we get an overabundance of participants, we will divide and conquer into more teams as necessary.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at nsslhaaudut@gmail.com or meibostrumpet@gmail.com

Trophies will be awarded, bragging rights appointed, and snacks & sweets usually abound!

Thank you very much for your time and consideration to support our state association, and may the most prepared students win!
