<span style="color:black">We are so excited to announce the launch of our Duckfunder for Building Community for Underrepresented Students and Professionals (BCUSP), the affinity group created to support underrepresented students within our program. Duckfunder
is the crowdsourcing platform through the University. BCUSP has five community mentors of color (4 SLPs and 1 school administrator) who are looking forward to connecting with our graduate students. Our goal is to have the group established by the time the
1<sup>st</sup><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>years join us in September. Funds raised from the Duckfunder will go towards paying our mentors and supporting BCUSP. Here is a video clip of some of our students and mentors sharing what BCUSP means
