In a recent note to Donna Quesal, Stephanie said, “Thank you for your encouragement. The training I received at WIU helped me a lot in teaching language. I still have a lot to learn, and will keep working hard on being a good SLP. . . .  In fact, my proposals to ASHA have been accepted this time (both poster and speaking sessions). I am very grateful for WIU faculty’s support.”

Stephanie is the kind of grad everyone is proud of–the department, the college, and the university.
