THE DEPARTMENT OF SPEECH offers major curricula leading to the
Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Master of Arts, Master of Science, and
Doctor of Philosophy degrees, with opportunities for study in rhetoric and public
address, radio and television broadcasting, speech and hearing therapy, and theater.
Work in speech is also offered for students majoring in other fields. For these
students, the department directs its efforts toward two principal objectives: (l)
the development of the ability to communicate thought and feeling; and (2) the
improvement of powers of appreciation and evaluation in listening.
Practical experience in the various phases of the departmental program is
provided through the University Theater, the University Symposium and forensic
activities, the University Broadcasting Studios, and the Speech and Hearing Clinic.
In the planning of its major undergraduate programs, the Department of
Speech recognizes three principal objectives:
