Peter and Eric interview Cassie. Cassie is a covert stutterer and has just started coming out of her covert closet over this past week and has just started telling a few friends that she stutters. Cassie sent StutterTalk an email because she wants to go to graduate school to become a speech-language pathologist and is very worried that she will have to pass a speech screening to graduate.

These two articles from the Philadelphia Inquirer detail Peter's battle against discrimination. Cassie is pictured below.
