Speech Through the aid of various courses, the Speech Depart- ment endeavors to help the student know what something means, know how to convince others that certain ideas are right, and know how to demonstrate the power to say accurately and effectively what he means. The right word supported by voice inflection, pitch, timing, and the proper gesture combines to create a mental picture worth a world of meaning. Communication is the purpose of speech — the use of words expressing what the student wishes to say and the listeners perceiving that intended meaning. Speech is the rendezvous of comprehension and communication, each of which is incomplete without the other. Radio communication — a combination of vocal and mechan- ical skills.
