[Psycdept-l] Psych Department News and Events

[Elsner, Robert]

Beloved all,

I hope that the semester is off to a great start, learning exciting things, making new friends, and being spiritually nourished in this amazing place we are privileged to work in. I wanted to share a few items with you for your calendar and consideration.

First, DONUT DAY returns! This annual tradition mixes our favorite students with our favorite confections. September 22nd at 10am outside of the Russell Hall entrance to our building (on the Reid Chapel side). You may bring a friend interested in our program as well. We can guarantee yummy donuts and great fellowship.

Second, the same day is the Neuroscience Major launch at 3pm in the planetarium in Probst Hall. This is a general interest event, with posters, treats, and discussions of what a Neuroscience major or a Neuro/Psych double major would look like, as well as info on Neuro minors.

Third, our Psych Club has an InstaGram page!

Please consider subscribing to it to keep up on the latest Club news.

Finally, There is a new course we will be offering next semester that might be of special interest:

PSYC 102 - Careers and Skills in Psychology and Neuroscience

2.00 credit hours

This course will provide students with an overview of the disciplines of psychology and neuroscience, including expectations for the majors and career options for students completing a bachelor or graduate degree in psychology or neuroscience. Skills required for library research, writing in American Psychological Association style, and ethical and professional issues will be discussed. Assignments include readings, database and internet searches, guest speakers, in-class exercises, written assignments, and group discussions.

Have a Blessed day!

In Christ,

Dr. E.
