ESU Today. Speech Language Pathologist Tomorrow.
Megan Harding B.S.'19 M.S.'21 M.S. in Communication Sciences and Disorders
Megan Harding earned both her undergraduate degree in communication sciences and disorders
(CSD) with a concentration in gerontology and a graduate degree in the same program.
While her academic record boasts a place on the dean’s list and graduating summa cum
laude, it’s also her outstanding service to ESU, the program and the community that
sets her apart from the rest.
When asked, “Why ESU?,” Megan responded, “I chose ESU for many reasons. First and
foremost, ESU has a great reputation for their speech and language pathology program.
The student outcome data supports this by showing a three-year average of 100% of
students in the CSD Master's program completing the program, passing the praxis examination,
and having employment.”
Megan thrived at ESU. As an undergraduate student, Megan was a member of Autism Speaks
U, the Warrior cheerleading squad, the National Honor Society of Leadership and Success
(first president of ESU’s Phi Eta Sigma National Honor Society), the Sign Language
Club and the College of Health Sciences Student Leader Council. Megan lived with
other students majoring in the health sciences in the college’s Living Learning Community
and also represented ESU as a member of the National Student Speech Language Hearing
Association. In her final semester as an undergraduate, she was an active intern at
Spring Village Pocono, a personal care community near ESU’s campus. It was no surprise
when Megan also received the 2019 University Service Award, ESU’s highest non-academic
award for meaningful contributions in extracurricular activities and services on and
off campus.
