HELP WHEN NEEDED... FLORIDA CENTER OF CLINICAL SERVICES This program consists of a number of clinics whose primary function is to serve University students. Other objectives of the Center are to assist in the training of teachers and specialists to work with those who have problems and handicaps; to establish basic research in respect to causes, treatment, and care of handicapping conditions; and to cooperate with public and private agencies in extending the services to citizens of the state insofar as staff time can be made available. For an appointment with any of the clinics, you should contact the office of the Coordinator, Darrel J. Mase, Room 339, Administration Building. Where the service of only one clinic is required, appointments may be made with the head of the respective clinic from which assistance is desired. SPEECH AND HEARING CLINIC The Florida Center of Clinical Services of the University of Florida has a Speech and Hearing Clinic which offers its services to all students who have an impairment that may affect their academic or social life. In order that the students may be made aware of this service when needed, a survey is conducted during the Orientation period for all freshmen and transfer students. A re- latively simple test is administered in order that those students may be dis- covered who have speech or hearing inadequacies which may prove a handicap during their college career or in later life. Following the survey, individuals with speech or hearing impairments are in vited to avail themselves of the clinical facilities where they will find available corrective speech instructions, audiometric tests for loss of hearing, and indi- vidual counseling for the conservation of speech and hearing. The student has an opportunity to use recording devices during practice periods under the supervision of a staff of expert clinicians. The interest in the student's im- provement is not limited to the clinical practice period, but is projected into his classrooms by means of conferences with his instructors. All of this is made available to the student without charge. The Speech and Hearing Clinic operates in close conjunction with the Speech Department, and its work is coordinated with other student services.
