We are the National Student Speech, Language, and Hearing Association (NSSLHA) chapter at Baylor University. 

ABOUT:

The purpose of the Chapter shall be to aid the students of Baylor University by providing support: To encourage professional interest among college and university students in the study of human communication sciences and disorders, to provide continuity to the dissemination of professional information, and to provide a vehicle for student representation in matters of professional concern.

WHAT WE DO:

As members of Baylor University's NSSLHA, students have the opportunity to network with other students who have similar interests, meet professionals working in the field, and participate in a variety of activities.

We support and volunteer at local schools, hospitals and retirement homes.
