[Dysphagia] Qualifications

OTs, Dietitians and others are required (so I believe) to have basic  
sciences as a prerequisite. I would like someone to tell me how all of this very  
complex information can be shoehorned into an undergraduate and graduate program  
in speech. In my experience it is not possible.
I have taught voice and dysarthria and aphasia etc. etc. and have written  
many of the questions on motor speech disorders for the CASLPA exam. I should  
remind all of you that you know nothing of my background and experience and  
would probably be very surprised if you did.
