I am curious, you mentioned an intro to Cued Speech at Gally next semester; do you know the instructors name yet?

I. King Jordon closed the CS center during his term as President of Gally, the pretense being financial circumstances. To have a CS center in Gally again would be fabulous!
The course is HSL 690, here is the description from the catalog:
Quote:
HSL 690 Introduction to Cued Speech (2)
This course covers the history and development of Cued
Speech (CS) with a focus on learning the CS system. Topics
include: CS interpreting; application of CS to various
populations; compatibility of CS with methodologies
designed for deaf and hard of hearing people; benefits of
CS to speechreading, pre-reading skills, auditory training
techniques, and oral language development.
I don't know who the instructor is, James Mahshie of the HSL department said that I could contact him in November to ask about it. I think it is a female instructor though. It is normally for juniors, seniors, and grad students, but I am hoping to take it next semester or audit it if I have to.

I don't think there is a CS center anymore, I think it is just the class. There is also a "Cued Speech Seminar" that is HSL 712.

Seminar on instruction of the entire Cued Speech system:
History, theory, and practical application of Cued Speech.
