Senior Corey Cathey is a communication science and disorders major from Hallsville. She is representing the MU Chapter of the National Student Speech Language Hearing Association.

“I've been a member since sophomore year,” Cathey said.

Cathey said she found out she made the top 10 a couple of days after the second round of interviews.

“It's been an amazing experience so far and I'm definitely not ready for it to end,” Cathey said.

Cathey said her time at MU has been memorable and something for which she will always be grateful.

Besides being a member of NSSLHA, Cathey is also a member of the MU Shooting Team, the MU Cheerleading/Mascot Alumni Association, the School of Health Professions Dean’s Team and the Student Auxiliary Services Student Executive Development Committee.

“The organizations I've been involved with and the people I've met along the way have become the connection and ties to Mizzou that I will carry with me into all my future endeavors,” Cathey said.

After graduation, Cathey plans to attend graduate school to obtain her graduate degree in speech language pathology and then hopefully work in a children’s hospital.
