Evangel approves implementation of five-year B.S./M.S. psychology program Posted: 21 Apr 2010 11:48 AM PDT The Evangel University Board of Administration has recently approved the implementation of a five-year Bachelor of Science/Master of Science degree program in counseling or clinical psychology, beginning fall 2010. High-performing students, with the consent of their academic advisers, may begin taking an accelerated course of study during their junior year that will allow them to complete their undergraduate degree during the first semester of their senior year and simultaneously begin graduate studies, according to a news release from the university. At the end of their fifth year of courses, students will have completed a master's degree in psychology. This opportunity will be ideal for students who have determined that they wish to have a career as a licensed professional counselor or pursue a doctoral psychology program, since it will allow them to shorten the timeframe one would usually follow in obtaining the master's degree. The time savings will be achieved through taking classes during two summer terms and taking dual-credit courses in their senior year of study. For additional information, contact Grant Jones at 417-865-2815, ext. 8619. Evangel University is a private, Christian university that offers more than 100 undergraduate academic programs and eight master's programs. Evangel draws nearly 2,000 students from all 50 states and abroad. For additional information, visit www.evangel.edu. Five Filters featured article: Chilcot Inquiry.

Induction Ceremony Honors Neuroscience and Psychology Students Posted: 20 Apr 2010 05:05 PM PDT On Tuesday, April 13, Trinity College honored selected students for their outstanding performance in neuroscience and psychology by inducting them into the Psi Chi and Nu Rho Sci society. Both scholastic societies were created to encourage excellence in their respective fields and promote professional interest and public awareness. The Psi Chi society has existed since 1929 and celebrated its 50th anniversary as a Trinity College chapter this year. It honors a hand full of students each year for their dedication and commitment to the study of psychology. The mission of Psi Chi is to provide academic recognition to its inductees and to nurture its member's creative development through the activities and involvement of the local chapters. The Psi Chi society has recently gone global in an effort to expand this rewarding opportunity of lifetime membership and fellowship grants to international as well as national advocates of psychology. The society not only awards $250,000 in grants every year but also provides Trinity students, as well as those around the world, with the advantages of a solid community and network of psychology enthusiasts. Each chapter is run by a student officer or faculty advisor that shares an interest and background in the field of Psychology. Charles A. Dana Research Associate Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience Susan Masino, who led the induction ceremony on Tuesday, heads Trinity's Psi Chi chapter. The students who were honored included Namrata Bindra '10, Emily A. Darby '10, Claire E. Doucette '10, Michael G. Frangieh '10, Nayelly D. Hernández Pérez '10, Christine T. Moody '10, Kristen E. Plumridge '11, David A. Rowe '10, Jessica R. Sims '10. The Psi Chi society has been a part of Trinity's academic culture for 50 years and continues to promote the same values of hard work and curiosity in the study of psychology. The Nu Rho Sci society, unlike Psi Chi, celebrated its inaugural induction ceremony on Tuesday and welcomed the first members of the Trinity Alpha chapter. The current student inductees were Nicole R Albino '10, Angela G. Colantonio '11, Ritika S. Chandra '10, Shana Conroy '10, Stephen W. English, Jr. '10, Lea L. Jancic '10, Jacqueline Parrotta '10, Michael W. Pierce '10, David A. Rowe '10, Hannah B. Smith '10, Julia Svedova '11, Deniz Vatansever '10. The alumni honored were Urey Chow '09, Daniel Coleman '07, Carrie Disa '09, Kristen McNamara '09, Laura Taylor Pomeroy '09, Caleb Diamond Wasser '08. Nu Rho Sci, like Psi Chi, shares similar goals and tries to encourage professional interest and excellence in neuroscience by promoting awareness and scholastic opportunities and advantages. Nu Rho Sci grants travel awards to many of its student members and holds regional conferences throughout the year to foster a sense of community among its members. Because the Nu Rho Sci community was just established at Trinity, the ceremony awarded students as well as previous graduates of the past five years who, had the chapter been in effect, would have been granted membership. The ceremony itself consisted of the announcing of the students names and each student signed their name in the official book of the society in which they were being honored.
