I really enjoyed the meeting at AAA. It was good to have faces to names! Thank you Sam and Gloria (and Suzanne) for getting things going at the meeting. One...
I thought the convention was very successful in terms of ALD's. I had no problem with the equipment, or instructors (that was lucky). I was extremely ...

I think I met Peter at the ARO convention a few years ago. ARO was awesome for accomodations. If you are into hard-core hearing research it is a great...
I will try to summarize a bit about our dealings with the board. Each year the board changes, so our response has been different every year. After the...
Hi all, I was not able to attend AAA this year, but I would also like to concur with what Suzanne has said. In comparison with AGBell, AAA is lacking in...
So basically what is needed: Captions-Cart? ALDS? Sign Lang. Interpreters? Cued Speech Interpreters? Oral Interpreters? Personally I like the caption-CART idea...

Hi Kristen There is an article in Hearing Journal Vol. 59 #9 p59 with income levels for AuD's The article mentions a mean salary of $61K-105K, with private...
I'll play devil's advocate here. As a business owner, I would expect a person being paid $61k to generate at least 180k in collected income. If you can show...
