Personal Commentary
Dr. June McCullough is a native of Los Angeles, California who has lived in San Jose since 1986. She has been a professor at SJSU in the Communicative Disorders and Sciences Department since 1989. Her research agenda has involved using an innovative computer-administered procedure for assessing the word recognition performance of multi-lingual patients with hearing loss. In 2011, she was awarded an Office of Special Education (OSEP) Personnel Preparation Grant ($1.25 million dollars) to support speech-language pathology graduate students who specialized in providing services to children with cochlear implants.
Dr. McCullough was a founding member of the California Academy of Audiology. She served as President of that organization in 2012. She chaired the annual conference from 2011-2013.
In 2017, Dr. McCullough was named the Interim Director of the newly proposed Doctor of Audiology program. She was instrumental in developing the curriculum, obtaining preliminary accreditations, and hiring the first faculty members. The inaugural cohort of AuD students began their studies in Fall 2019.
In addition to her academic career, Dr. McCullough is the co-owner of Hearing Solutions, a private audiology practice serving adults and children in San Jose.
Dr. McCullough has two children. Her older son is an SJSU graduate (BA in Music Performance, BA in Music Education, Single-subject credential in Music). Her younger son is a graduate of Cal Poly (English), the University of Iowa (English), and Yale Divinity School (Religion and Literature). In her spare time, Dr. McCullough is a passionate tennis player, reader, and A’s fan. She can be found mornings and evenings walking her three Jack Russell/Chihuahua pups and attempting unsuccessfully to train them not to bark at the neighborhood German Shepherds and Dobermans.
