PSYCHOLOGY CLUB
The Psychology Club is open to any interested undergraduate. It frequently hosts speakers on a variety of topics including career exploration. Check the bulletin board outside 335 Graff Main Hall for upcoming meetings. Dr. Bart VanVoorhis is the Faculty Advisor. The Psychology Club hosts a "Career Night" for psychology majors in the Spring.
PSI CHI
Psi Chi (pronounced "sigh - kai") is an internation honors society for psychology founded in 1929 for the "purposes of encouraging, stimulating, and maintaining excellence in scholarship, and advancing the science of psychology. Membership is open to graduate and undergraduate men and women who are making the study of psychology one of their major interests, and who meet the minimum qualifications."
A student must be a junior, have 9 credits in psychology and a GPA of at least 3.00 and in the upper 35% of their class (for UW-L the cut off is a 3.33 in Psychology). If you are a sophomore, junior, or senior in psychology and are eligible you will receive an invitation via email to join in the month of September. You will be expected to attend the induction ceremony that will be held on a Wednesday evening approximately the sixth week of the semester. Psi Chi and Psychology Club do many of their activities together, but Psi Chi focuses more exclusively on advanced research and graduate school planning. Psi Chi hosts a "Graduate School Night" in the Fall. For the past several years, Psi Chi has helped to sponsor students interested in going to the Midwestern Psychological Association's conference in May in Chicago. Dr. Betsy Morgan is the Faculty Advisor.
