Please join us in congratulating our graduates!
This year, for the first time in its long and illustrious history, the Psychology department held an undergraduate graduation ceremony on May 11, 2012. Two of them, actually, because although we reserved a large room, we needed two seatings to accommodate all of the graduating seniors who wished to take part. This ceremony was the only opportunity for our graduates to be honored individually for their accomplishment, as we had them marching with their names announced. A special thank you to the many people who made this event possible, especially Dr. Adam Goodie, Dr. Keith Campbell, Dr. Janet Frick, Ms. Tracey Villaveces, Mr. Daniel Harrison, Ms. Sandra Hodo, Ms. Nikki Hobus, and Mr. Michael Amlung. Photos from the two ceremonies are available online.
