Central
Michigan University and the King/Chavez/Parks (KCP) Initiative Fund of
the State of Michigan sponsored six workshops this past June. The main
purpose of the workshops is to expose students from under- represented
groups to a college experience. 
The
Herbert H. and Grace A. Dow College of Health Professions (CHP) presented
a weeklong program, as part of the KCP initiative. This workshop was designed
to provide students with a broader understanding of the various health
professions while exploring personal characteristics necessary for self
–identifying a career direction. Twelve CHP faculty and numerous
graduate and undergraduate students participated in the workshop. Twenty-six
high school students were
provided
information and hands on activities in the area of speech/language pathology,
audiology, physical therapy, sports medicine, health fitness, physical
education, medicine and Internet search skills. In addition, students
learned the basics of communicating through finger spelling and sign language.
