8/21/08: Kanjorski Announces Grant Award for Bloomsburg University

 

WASHINGTON - Today, Congressman Paul E. Kanjorski (PA-11) announced that the U.S. Department of Education awarded a four-year grant totaling $780,000 to Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania.  The funding will be used to improve services and results for children who are deaf or hard of hearing by educating students in audiology.

"Bloomsburg University has grown academically over the past years, and the fact that the institution has received this highly competitive grant is proof that the federal government has taken notice.   I am pleased that this grant will allow the university to increase the quality and quantity of students pursuing their Doctorate of Clinical Audiology.  I commend Bloomsburg University for its foresight in applying for this competitive grant," said Congressman Kanjorski. 

"We're delighted to receive this major funding for our doctor of audiology program," said Dr. David Soltz, president of Bloomsburg University. "Professor Tom Zalewski, the project director, pursued this grant to achieve three goals: to train audiologists to help students in kindergarten through high school achieve academic success, to recruit doctoral students from underrepresented populations and to conduct an ongoing review to ensure the quality of our doctoral program."

Bloomsburg University will receive $195,815 the first year and approximately the same amount for the next three years. 

The grant is part of the Personnel Preparation Program.  These grants assist states in meeting their responsibility for providing personnel to serve children with disabilities.
