AudiologyNOW 2008 proposal   Message List

Re: AudiologyNOW 2008 proposal (and letter)

Hi Suzanne and Brad,

Which two list members are meeting with AAA this Fall? This comes as
new information to me, and it would be nice to have a group discussion
beforehand about what we want AAA to know.

As for the letter, the changing convention board has been part of the
problem and I agree. And I also agree that we need more teeth by
getting other professional groups involved and the public media. I can
think of a few professional organizations, but why don't you guys
start sending some names we can get involved. I'm thinking HLAA,
AGBell, NAD, AMPHL... audiology-related organizations too?

And for the discussion group??? Any takers?

Sam

Jayna, I hate to be so negative, but AAA has been aware of this for many years. Also, I really don't see the manufacturers stepping up to the plate on this ...
