Orientation Week was the beginning of a journey and the start of a community.πŸ–€πŸ’›

Our incoming Speech-Language Pathology students spent the week learning about the program, preparing for the semesters ahead, and connecting with classmates who will be alongside them every step of the way.

From professional introductions to moments of laughter and friendship, Orientation Week offered a glimpse of what makes SLHS special: a community that supports one another while pursuing a shared commitment to helping others communicate and thrive.

We're excited to welcome this new cohort to Purdue and can't wait to see all they accomplish.

🌧Rain couldn't stop the SLHS Welcome Back Picnic.

When the weather changed our plans, the celebration simply moved indoors, bringing students, faculty, and staff together in the Lyles-Porter Hall atrium to kick off the Fall 2026 semester.

The afternoon was filled with good food, familiar faces, new introductions, and plenty of conversation. Moments like these help build the connections that make SLHS more than a department. They help create a community.

Thanks to everyone who joined us. Here's to a great semester ahead!πŸ–€πŸ’›

πŸ’ͺStrong research communities start with strong connections.

During Orientation Week, SLHS PhD students and faculty gathered at Nine Irish Brothers for an evening of conversation, networking, and community building. From discussing research interests and career goals to sharing experiences and exploring future collaborations, the event provided a welcoming space for new and returning doctoral students to connect.

Thank you to everyone who joined us. We're excited to continue building a supportive and collaborative PhD community throughout the year.πŸ–€πŸ’›

πŸŽ‰ Orientation week is officially in the books.

Yesterday's final day brought our newest SLHS students together for Graduate School Convocation, brunch with faculty, staff, and fellow students, and candid conversations during student panel discussions. New students had the opportunity to ask questions about clinic experiences, research opportunities, life in West Lafayette, and everything in between.

A strong start begins with strong connections, and we're excited to see what this cohort accomplishes in the years ahead.
