On September 23, 2002, the C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University dedicated the new Fisher Family Clinical Education Center for Communication Disorders at the J. M. Ladge Speech and Hearing Center.

Students use the new wing to prepare verbal and audio screening programs for clients.

The new wing was made possible by a generous donation from Long Island residents Arlene and Daniel Fisher. Daniel Fisher is a graduate of the Brooklyn Campus of Long Island University, while the couple's son, Jeffrey, and daughter, Sharon, both graduated from C.W. Post. It includes lab space with state-of-the-art computers, audio and video tape recording and monitoring equipment, space for meetings, records storage and more.
