No matter what kind of medical professional you become, you’re guaranteed to care for Spanish-speaking patients.

Our WSU Medicine LMSA chapter, led by second years Carmella Crooks and Victoria Caldera and first year Micaela Rodriguez Moncayo, celebrates the language and culture of our future patients through fun trivia nights, mentorship and outreach with Latino youth, and creating spaces that embrace the warmth and community of Latino culture.

Let’s continue to honor and learn from the vibrant communities we serve this month and every month.

As the first full month of the school year came to a close, we took a moment to look back on those childhood dreams that once felt so big and see how they’ve evolved into the goals we’re working toward today. 🩺🎤🚒

It’s amazing how our early inspirations continue to shape the paths we follow. 💭

A century of voices. A century of impact. 🗣️✨

Since 1925, Washington State University’s Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences has evolved from a program rooted in elocution and theater to a nationally recognized leader in clinical training and research.

Our students, graduates and faculty have made a difference in communities near and far, in clinics and camps where lives are changed.

Now, as part of the Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine, we continue our mission to prepare the next generation of speech-language pathologists and researchers, while advancing knowledge that improves lives across the lifespan.

During the first week of classes, our Nutrition and Exercise Physiology students had a special opportunity for cultural exchange.

At the Mukogawa U.S. campus in Spokane, they met students from Mukogawa Women’s University in Nishinomiya, Japan, who are studying Food Science and Nutrition.

Together, they shared a traditional Japanese lunch and small-group discussions about nutrition and culture.

This experience not only celebrated friendship and food, but also reminded us how nutrition brings people together across the world. 🐾

How do we protect brain health as we age? At Washington State University, Assistant Professor Amy Kemp, PhD, CCC-SLP, and her students are helping communities find answers.

Through the BRAIN FIT initiative, WSU brought free brain health screenings to rural areas of Washington and Idaho, covering everything from heart and hearing health to nutrition and sleep.

The project not only provides vital resources for healthier aging, but also gives WSU students hands-on experience that will shape their future as health care providers.
