Fiona Gibbon PhD FRCSLT

Professor, Head of Department Speech and Hearing Sciences

University College Cork

Congratulations on your graduation. I don’t underestimate the high demands that the course (and the staff!) made on you over the past four years. You may have had times when you wanted to give it all up and do something easier, less challenging, less demanding. But you kept at it and you’ve finally made it. You deserve a lot of credit and should be proud of yourselves.

I was in your position many years ago when I received a license to practice as a speech and language therapist. That was the most valuable thing I ever received. That event shaped my life more than anything before or since. My parents understood the importance of education and told me that the most important thing you can get in life is an education.

I have come to realise that this is really true, it is worth more than a million euros. It’s something you will have for the rest of your lives, and no one can take it away from you. Whatever you do next, it is inside you now and it will influence the way you think and everything that you do in your lives. And remember, this is not the end of your journey because learning is a lifelong experience. You are well on your way though. You have reached a milestone.

I know you are going in to a challenging jobs environment. I hope that in time you will find jobs in Ireland and become practicing members of the Irish Association of Speech and Language Therapy. But there are plenty of opportunities out there and alternative paths to take when you have an education and a clinical qualification such as yours. Whatever you choose, make sure that you enjoy what you are doing because that makes life fulfilling. I am sure you recognise the invaluable support that so many people have given you over the past four years. You can best show your appreciation by having wonder-fully successful lives! Congratulations once again to you all and

very best wishes for the future.

Our course has meant that who we have really come to know and be friends with over the past four years has been largely determined by who we been coupled with for placement or who we happened to sit next to during ‘Sally’s First PBL’ session.

Nevertheless, as class rep I would like to say what a privilege it has been to be part of a class that has never stumbled from being wholly supportive and encouraging of one another. There are many different personalities among us, however I feel everyone has a character that most can only aspire to and I am certain that everyone will go on to achieve many great and wonderful things.

So before I get all P.S. I love you on this introduction, I would like to wish you all the very best, and I hope all our paths cross again in the ever-nearing future. All the best!

without them in the first place

College friends become kind of family,you eat together,

you take naps together, fight, laugh, cry,

and do absolutely nothing togetheruntil you can‘t remember

how you everlived your life

“Family” Following our 4 years in college, I am now fortunate to have gained 21 new “sisters” that I never had. Not only that, but I think we can all consider ourselves “aunties” to the one and only Isabelle! Imagine how much our families have grown…

“Eat together” Let’s face it, Brookfield canteen isn’t anything fancy, but it got us by through the 4 years of all those beloved PBL tea breaks, or any excuse for a cup of tea in general! What does it matter what the food tastes like anyway, they say it’s the company that matters ;)

“Naps together” Numerous times did we feel the need to have a quick snooze during a certain lecture on an early Friday morning…

“Fight” Thankfully, for a group of all women, there was no fighting! But if anyone in our class did need us, we’d be there, all guns blazing!

“Laugh” A fond few memories… • A certain lecturer and his tendency to bump into things during our lectures…• Longing for the minutes to tick by in some lectures…• “Spit or Swallow” enough said!! • “Hmmmm… Hmmmm” ***Head nod***• “Bilingualism!!!”

10

“Cry” Many a tear has been shed by all! They didn’t really go easy on us did they???

“Do absolutely nothing together” Sorry but when again have we ever had nothing to do? The joys of continuous assessment…

Even so, we really did make the most of the time we had together and long may it last! We all might not know what is around the corner and god only knows what part of the world

we all could end up in, but we are finally finished!!!

Finally, I would like to wish you all the best of luck in the world. I can’t describe in words how much I will miss you all (ye all know, I am quite the emotional fish) but I would like to sincerely thank you all for making my 4 years of college a pleasure. Many a time did I curse the course, but NEVER the people that got

through it with me! Remember:

because it happened! because it’s over, smile

don’t cry

dear felloW stUdent,

We made it!The past four years have been challenging to say the least, but

we’re here, we’re Speech and Language Therapists! I personally would not have made it to graduation day without the amazing support of our class. Whether we’ve been crying over Praat, tearing our hair out over the VIVA, having a com-plete meltdown when the laminator breaks or drowning in the seemingly endless sea of the FYP, we’ve supported each other the whole way through, whether with endless cups of tea (with our own teabags of course), messy nights out or just

listening to each other complain.

I think the traits of compassion, empathy, and of course, a good sense of humour (to keep us sane) that make us such fantastic Speech and Language Therapists also make us a great group of people to be around, and have allowed us to form

some wonderful, life-long friendships.

We are all a mix of nerves and excitement as we begin to follow the uncertain paths of our future, and I want to wish everybody the best of luck in your future careers, and lives! Really hope we all stay in contact and have plenty of reunions!

Girls, congratulations on your graduation. Wishing all the best for the future. It was great working with you all. Let the hunt for the graduation shoes begin!

The very best of luck to you all.I have great confidence in your ability to take your places professionally in whatever capacity you work in the future.In time, you might come to value the skills you‘ve honed during the PBL process, over the three years-even if its your staying power to engage in three hour sessions! Or your confidence to speak up on your own or anothers behalf.I hope you all have made lasting friendships, that you will treasure for a long time to come.

14

Dear Graduates!

Congratulations on completing what is a very intense and difficult course and coming out the other side!

You are entering a wonderful profession which I hope will always inspire and motivate you from the range of clients and families that you will meet. Best of luck for the future whatever path you decide to go down and I hope that you will fondly remember your days at UCC and stay in touch with each other

and with us here at the Department. No one else will understand how hard it is to finish a reading form on a Monday night while colouring in pictures for clinics the next day when the rest of the University are out partying!

All the best

YoU shall go to the ball

Over the years, we have foregone our own lonely Clinical Therapies Ball (until 4th year, when we de-cided to attend and make it cool), to attend a variety of balls from other disciplines, the ones that actually have male students, from accounting, to engineering, scienceand commerce with great success...

CliniCal theraPies ball – 7 th of marCh, 2013

Good evening everyone! My name is Elaine and I am going to be speaking tonight on behalf of all the final year SLTs. For those of you who don’t know us already, I am going to tell you a little bit about us! So as you can see for yourselves, we are a group of 22 very ‘classy ladies’.

Over the last four years, we have become experts in many different areas and have attained a unique set of skills. Such as… spit or swallow,

We love to go out and have fun. We are typically the type of group that you will hear before you see! We do work very hard, however, so we only get to enjoy the occasional alcoholic beverage!

Over the years, we have become very close as a group and are like one big happy family! We have celebrated many happy occasions together. We have all made life-long friends as part of the course. I am sure and confident that we will continue to remain friends in the many years to come, no matter where we end up jet-setting across the globe. I just know that there are many poles out there just waiting for us to find them!

As I’m sure you will all agree, each of us as individuals are more than deserving of a number of different awards for our various attributes and for the many funny situations we have all found ourselves in over the years, be it on nights out, placement or college in general. However tonight, we are going to give out a few select awards.

edinbUrgh

On the 13th of December 2013, eight SLTs packed their thermal underwear and headed for a well- deserved break in Edinburgh. Oh, but a wonderful time was had, between spontaneous ceili’s in Finnegan’s wake, eyeballs that could be described as nothing else, but hairy, and a surreal night in an episode of ‘Made in Chelsea’. And let’s not forget, Maire Ring’s true love of the Ferris Wheel, Rosie’s complete and utter nervous breakdown in the dungeons, and gracefully running away from the walking tour, only to repeatedly hide behind telephone boxes every time it caught up with us. We’ll always remember Maria’s new nickname of ‘Squats’, and the very cross Australian lady, who couldn’t for the life of her understand why we had brought our own teabags. And all we wanted was a bit of (cheese) tea.

We must return at some stage girls, as we never did have that battered mars bar...
