Quotes from Former Students

"The value of a liberal arts education isn't what education can do for you, but what education does to you.  What I learned in the Department of Speech Communication at Ouachita has changed the way I interact with people every single day.  The concepts I learned have provided a foundation for high-quality relationships with friends, family, and coworkers.  It has also improved my leadership ability in jobs and ministry."

"My Speech Communication degree from Ouachita helps me on a daily basis in dealing with vendors, developing relationships with clients, and creating repeat business.  There is a vast amount, as well as a wide-variety, of communication skills involved in the process of seeing the 'new trends in style' in magazines or on celebrities, and then efficiently purchasing those items at Market, incorporating them into my store, and marketing them in a way which appeals to my specific customer demographic.  Furthermore, the Department of Speech Communication at Ouachita truly helped shape me as an individual--and I will always be grateful."
