2022 Ethics in Action: NSSLA TikTok Contest Winners Announced

The Ethics Education Committee is excited to share the results of the 2022 Ethics in Action: NSSLHA TikTok Contest. Contest results were announced during the ISHA Student Day Knowledge Quest event at the 2023 ISHA Convention. Six NSSLHA chapters participated in the third annual ethics contest:

• DePaul University
• Eastern Illinois University
• Governors State University
• Midwestern University
• Northern Illinois University
• Western Illinois University

We are thrilled that each iteration of the annual contest has increased student participation. In 2020, 20 students from four universities participated in the ethics contest and our 2021 contest included 24 students from three universities. This year we had 75 students participate across six different universities.

Each team was tasked with creating a TikTok video (up to 3 minutes in length) that highlighted their NSSLHA chapter and responded to the following prompt: Top 10 Ways Your NSSLHA Chapter and/or CSD department Supports Ethical Practices. Submissions needed to reference the 2016 ASHA Code of Ethics, their own NSSLHA chapter &/or program, and creativity was encouraged. All submissions were evaluated by our judges. A heartfelt thank you to our three judges: Kahla Graham, ISHA VP Division of Association Affairs; Whitney de Haseth, ISHA Social Media Manager & Communications Committee Chair; and Kyle Pelkey, Ethics Education Committee member.

Congratulations to Midwestern University for submitting the winning TikTok submission!
