As part of the continuing service to the University, Ms. Zaneta Ponton has implemented the first NCCU Sports Talk program. The Sports Talk Program is designed to develop and enhance communication skills of collegiate athletes in preparation for professional presentations and to further assist them in their career pathways. Eligible collegiate athletes are provided opportunities for development and enhancement of communication skills through speech, language, and hearing, accent and dialect modification services. The NCCU athletes in football, men's/women's basketball, will be included during the 2007-2008 academic year. So, far 15 athletes have completed the program, with the Basketball team beginning in February 2008.
