PERSPECTIVES 25th Anniversary - Fall-Winter 2018

14 Nova Southeastern University [ Alumni Show Corner ] Medical outreach trips are not the only avenue of alumni/student partnerships. The college’s profes- sional scholarships are key to both recognizing ex- emplary students and supporting their success. When speech-language pathology student Lauren Laguno- vich received the inaugural Robin Shari Parker Me- morial Scholarship, she said, “My passion for this field has been solidified by the caring and knowledgeable professors I have connected with since beginning my journey at Nova Southeastern University. This has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.” Kelly Jones of Peru, New York, was a 2017–2018 recipient of the Nicole Weiser Memorial Scholarship in Audiology. Audiology student Marsadi Parliament of Niagara on the Lake, Canada, also was a recipient of the Nicole Weiser Memorial Scholarship. Lauren Lagunovich received the inaugural Robin Shari Parker Memorial Scholarship in Speech-Language Pathology.
