Have you read about the latest tradition to hit NCAA sports? The Iowa Hawkeyes are now delighting children from the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital with waves and smiles at the end of the first quarter of each home game.
In the shadow of the Children’s Hospital is the Wendell Johnson Speech and Hearing Clinic, where I got my BA and MA many, many years ago. Tens of thousands of fans are brightening the lives of seriously-ill children on Saturday afternoons. These links will tell you more:

So what does this have to do with word finding? Not a lot…except that it all boils down to communication among people. Communication enriches our lives and improves our health. I am proud of my Hawkeyes!
