The Basics
1.
Your UNC One Card is a lifeline! It is used as an ID, for photocopies and printing in the libraries, to buy
food on campus, and to get into athletic events. Money for your expense account—you get $40 for
printing on campus every semester— can be added to the card online at http://www.onecard.unc.edu/
or with cash at the One Card office- located on South Road, down the stairs from the Student Stores.
2.
Don’t let your UNC fees go to waste! The Student Recreation Center (“The SRC”) or Rams Head Gym
are great facilities to work out and are both near Bondurant Hall! Just bring your UNC One Card. The
SRC is on South Road across the street from the Student Union. Rams Head is close to the building
with the Registrar and Cashiers offices.
3.
Football tickets are free for students with a UNC One Card, with a few exceptions. Just bring it to the
stadium on game day and they will swipe it when you enter. Basketball tickets are also free, but it’s a
lottery system. Any football games, and there are usually one or two against big rivals, that are on the
lottery system, can be found online. The best way to manage your tickets is to go to
www.tarheelblue.com. Click on the “Ticket Center near the top of the page, and follow the pathways
for student tickets. First-time users will need to register. Don’t forget to check out UNC’s gorgeous
new baseball facility, Boshamer Stadium, where student tickets are always free with a One Card.
4.
You can check out movies from the Media Resource Library located on the back side of the
Undergraduate library. The MRC can be located at the University Library system website,
www.lib.unc.edu, on the “Collections” page. Also, on the weekends movies are shown for free in the
Student Union. Check the university newspaper, The Daily Tarheel (available in hard copies on campus
or online) to find out what movies are showing that week.
5.
When mailing something to a campus address, drop it in a campus box and it is delivered for free!
6.
Call campus directory number at 962-2211 for quick access to student and faculty info.
7.
There is a post office on the lowest floor of Student Stores on main campus for mailing off campus.
8.
You can get a study carrel (small cubby room with key) at Davis Library on main campus. Ask the
people at the front desk for more information or go to http://www.lib.unc.edu/circ/carrels.html
9.
You can print with your printing allowance on the 1st floor of the Health Sciences Library and the 2nd
floor of the School of Public Health building across the street. There are also various places around
main campus. There is a limit to free printing, but it’s a large one (400 pages) and no one ever seems
to run out! Copies cost money, but you can do that on the 1st floor of the library, too.
10.
If you have a S-11 parking permit, you can park in the hospital deck for free after 2:30. Most campus
parking decks are free after 5pm. The closest is the Global Education Center parking deck off of South
Road behind the pharmacy school.

Clinic/Practicum Tips
1. Remember to track your hours based on the ASHA categories (articulation, fluency, voice,
receptive/expressive language, social communication, cognitive communication, swallowing,
communication modalities, and hearing). Remember that you need at least 20 hours of competency in
both speech and language with evaluation and treatment with both adults and children- i.e. 20 child,
language, intervention and 20 child language evaluation / 20 child speech intervention and 20 child speech
evaluation / 20 adult language intervention and 20 adult language evaluation / 20 adult speech
intervention and 20 adult speech evaluation  160 hours of the various requirements but 400 are
required in total.
2. Advocate for yourself! Let the practicum coordinator (i.e. Lisa Domby) know your interest of working with
specific client populations and/or practicum sites.
3. Ask your buddy and other second years about their favorite/least favorite placements and supervisors.
Know your options! (i.e. schools, home health, private practice, hospital-acute care, hospital
outpatient/day rehab, etc.)
4. Try to get hearing screening hours and your research experience done as soon as possible. Your semester
will get busier than you think!
5. Each supervisor will do their paper work differently and may expect completely different formats of
progress reports, SOAP notes, etc. Make sure and ask exactly what the supervisor expects and wants. Be
flexible!
6. Only direct client/patient contact may be applied toward the required minimum of 375 clock hours of
supervised clinical experience. Caregiver interview as part of the evaluation process can count toward
evaluation. Caregiver education regarding the individual’s communication disorder can count toward
intervention. This could include the portion of an IEP meeting or parent/team meeting in which a
caregiver is present and the evaluation and treatment plan are being discussed. However, the student
must be directly involved in interviewing the caregiver or providing patient education, not simply
observing an interview or meeting.
7. Maintain good communication with your supervisor. Make sure he or she knows how much prior
experience you have had in the particular area and your level of comfort.
8. Read the DSHS Student Handbook on the web at
http://www.med.unc.edu/ahs/sphs/foradmittedstudents/information-for-current-students/clinical-education-handbook
It helps!

Professional Organizations
The American Speech Hearing Organization (ASHA) is the professional, scientific, and credentialing
association for more than 118,000 members and affiliates who are audiologists, speech-language pathologists,
and speech, language & hearing scientists.
The mission of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association is to promote the interests of and
provide the highest quality services for professionals in audiology, speech-language pathology, and speech and
hearing science, and to advocate for people with communication disabilities.
Their website, www.asha.org, is an excellent resource for learning more about the profession, and has
a variety of scholarly journals and publications available to ASHA & national NSSLHA members.
The annual ASHA convention will be November 18 - 20, 2010 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The theme
of this year’s convention is ‘Leadership into New Frontiers’. Plane tickets to Philadelphia can be very resonable
so we encourage you to look into attending if you can.
The North Carolina Speech, Hearing and Language Association (NCSHLA) is the professional association
of speech and language pathologists and audiologists in North Carolina. It was chartered in 1954 to promote
the professional practice of speech/language and hearing sciences, to advocate on behalf of the professional
practice, to serve as the voice of the professions and to advocate for communicatively impaired persons in
North Carolina.
Two conventions for NCSHLA are held annually, one in the fall and one in the spring. This fall, the
conference will be in Wilmington on September 23 - 24, 2011. Next spring, the convention will be in Concord,
at the Embassy Suites, March 28-31, 2012. The submission deadline for research presentations and posters is
September 15, 2011. Their website is www.ncshla.org, and dues for students are $25. Classes and practicum
will be cancelled for the spring convention and all students are encouraged to become NCSHLA members and
attend to conference at least one day to represent UNC and support faculty and student presenters. The
NCSHLA conference is a good place to network with employers and get to know students in other NC
programs.
The National Student Speech Language and Hearing Association (NSSLHA) is a pre-professional
membership association for students interested in the study of communication sciences and disorders. It is the
only official national student association recognized by ASHA. Their website is www.nsslha.org, and is also an
excellent resource.
NSSLHA has approximately 11,000 members with chapters in more than 294 colleges and universities.
As a member, you are entitled to issues from journals, reduced rates to the annual ASHA convention, and a
variety of other benefits. Dues for joining the national club are $60.

The UNC-Chapel Hill NSSLHA Chapter
In addition to the national club, there is a local chapter of NSSLHA, in which speech and hearing
graduate students at UNC can participate. There are many events and activities throughout the year including:
 Fundraisers
 Volunteering
 Helpful information sessions
 Support for first year students
 Social events in the Chapel Hill area
**Dues for joining our local chapter are $25 (this fee counts for both years you are at UNC).**
Other Professional Hints





Get involved with professional organizations, such as ASHA, NSSLHA & NCSHLA. In addition, there are
many other organizations that cater to specific fields of interest, such as the National Stuttering
Foundation, AG Bell & Cure Autism Now. These organizations are a great way to get information on the
latest trends in the field, and looks great on a resume!
There are two exams that speech-pathology graduate students must pass before graduation: A DSHS
comprehensive examination and the Praxis. You must register for the Praxis online but the
comprehensive exam is given at UNC in January at the beginning of your final spring semester.
Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC-SLP) is the official accreditation that speech-pathologists are
awarded
Spanish speaking therapists are in high demand!
Our field needs more doctoral candidate as well! If you are considering this, writing a master’s thesis
may be a good idea.

Therapy Tips
1. Keep a record of all your therapy ideas for later use. It is easy to forget them if they are not written
down. Start a notebook of assessment and intervention resources for future use.
2. Talk to fellow students about the ideas they have used with past clients and share materials.
3. Look for ideas on the Internet. There are many good websites for SLPs and for teachers that you can
get therapy tips and suggestions. Remember to check the source of the information, though.
4. If you want to begin your personal therapy “arsenal”, shop at the dollar store for therapy activities. You
will grow to love it, if you don’t already. Barnes & Noble always has a section in the Children’s books
with “sale” items.
5. Always plan more activities than you think you need for each session. Clients have a way of moving
faster through activities than you think they will, and sometimes they’re just not interested.
6. Include books in children’s therapy no matter what you are doing. They can be used to work on
articulation and language goals. Overall, they provide great literacy experiences. You can always
change the main character’s name to contain the target sound. See our activities section for some
suggestions!!
7. Find a method for keeping data throughout the session that works for you. This will help you
remember your client’s accuracy percentages for each goal and make your life easier when writing a
SOAP note.
8. Have fun with therapy! If you are having fun, your client will take notice and have more fun with
therapy.
9. It is not necessary to purchase any materials yourself. Your practicum sites often have great resources,
plus there are resources all over the Division. Look for toys and materials on the 2nd floor and
evaluations on the 3rd. If you are looking for other toys, ask Drs. Crais and Watson. They have a great
supply between the two of them. You can often use resources available at your respective site.
10. Mirrors are great to use for articulation therapy. It helps children visualize the sounds they are
practicing in therapy.
