UTHSC Audiology and Speech Pathology Annual Newsletter 2022 in Review
Making
REAL connections…
that’s what this newsletter is all about. After several socially-isolating and politically-divisive years, I’ve come to believe that in order to improve life’s connections, it is important to learn as much as we can about each other and unite over the things that resonate. ASP is multifaceted and complex, just like you. Therefore, within these pages, we share a variety of information so that you get to know more about the pieces that make us who we are. We are not just leaders, or educators, or clinicians, or researchers, or mentors, or students. Each of us are ALL of these things...every day. Collectively, we also are dads, moms, husbands, wives, daughters, sons, sisters, brothers, runners, hikers, readers, singers, friends, and the list goes on. What words describe you best? As you read, we hope there will be things to which you will relate, things that will capture your attention. By doing so, we hope to strengthen our critical connection to you as alumni, supporters, advisors, and friends. Our goal is to be One UTHSC ASP – united with you by the things we have in common and strengthened by all of our diverse experiences and perspectives. After all, there’s no ASP without beautiful, complicated us. - Dr. Ashley Harkrider, Professor and Chair LET’S CONNECT! We hope you will stay in touch through one or more of our social media platforms. We post frequent updates about ASP and want to hear all about you, too!
