Enrollment is open for ranked faculty in teaching positions, tenure track faculty and tenured faculty wishing to enroll in the fall 2013 Accent Modification Program (AMP).
AMP classes are designed to advance cultural diversity and understanding by improving overall communication between students and faculty, increasing active participation in campus dialogue and by promoting confident communication. Classes are conducted on an individual basis for a 13-week period by Mrs. Vicki Hopgood, speech and language pathologist. A broad range of topics are covered including: listening skills, voice projection, American intonation, pronunciation of difficult English vowels and consonants, classroom management and effective electronic communication. There is no charge for this service.
Interested faculty should obtain a referral from their department chair and enroll directly to Hopgood.
