Story
NCASC is a student run organization affiliated with the National
Communication Association (NCA). SIUC is one of only about 20 universities
to have an active chapter of NCASC. The goal of NCASC is to connect
students from all speech communication specializations. Students
in NCASC come from speech communication as well as other departments. NCASC is a chance for students who
feel that communication plays an important part in their lives, present
and future, to come together and support one another academically
and socially.
NCASC also works to connect students with the professors in the
department. This is done primarily at the beginning and end of the
year picnics hosted by NCASC to which the entire department is invited.
NCASC also hosts fundraisers in order to assist students in attending
National and Regional conferences. We are looking forward to the
National Conference in San Antonio this fall. NCASC also hosts
various social events in order to encourage interaction between students
and students and faculty, in accordance with the goals that NCA has
set forth for NCASC chapters across the country. Some of these events
include tailgating, scavenger hunts, speakers, movies, dinner, speakers
forum, fundraisers and more.
