Communicative Disorders Student Resources

Students occasionally find themselves looking for additional resources. We've found a few we think might be helpful in your studies.

 

CDIS Listserves - Graduate and Undergraduate

The CDIS Program maintains a listserve for our students. This group contains information specific to our department as well as immediate announcements such as class cancellations, re-schedulings, etc. Both graduate and undergraduate students are strongly advised to subscribe to the listserve and check their enmu e-mail each day.

Graduate students can subscribe online here. Undergraduate students should subscribe online here. You will be notified that you must be approved and should receive a confirmation e-mail when you have successfully subscribed.

Once you have subscribed, graduate students may post messages at cdis@itsvv409.enmu.edu. Undergraduate students should post to ugcdis@itsvv409.enmu.edu. Attachments are not supported and will be rejected. Please also be advised that you MUST type text into the subject line.
