Psi Chi, The National Honor Society in Psychology, 

Inducts New Members, and Elects Officers for 2006-2007

The Alcorn State University Chapter of Psi Chi, the National Honor Society in Psychology, inducted two new members on Friday, April 21, 2006. Chapter President Ms. Candice Wynne presided as Ms. Anyaliese Hancock, a sophomore psychology major from Mound Bayou, MS, and Mrs. Lalita Pathak, an instructor in psychology, received pins and certificates of membership in Psi Chi.

Chapter officers were elected for the 2006-2007 academic year. Ms. Christian Williams was elected President, Ms. Anyaliese Hancock was elected Vice President, Ms. Rachel Merriweather was elected Secretary, and Ms. Brittany Lee was elected Treasurer.

Psi Chi was founded on September 4, 1929, during the Ninth International Congress of Psychology held at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. The Honor Society’s stated purpose is to encourage, stimulate, and maintain excellence in scholarship, and to advance the science of psychology. Psi Chi is a member of the Association of College Honor Societies and is an affiliate of both the American Psychological Association and the American Psychological Society. Psi Chi has grown over the past 75 years into one of the largest and most successful honor societies in the world with over 1,000 chapters located at college and university campuses throughout the United States. These chapters not only recognize academic achievement by granting membership in the Society, but also sponsor programs and activities which augment and enhance the regular curriculum, offer an outlet for service to the campus and the community at large, and provide practical experience and fellowship through affiliation with the chapter. The national organization bestows several regional and national research awards, sponsors diverse programs at regional and national psychological association conventions (including lectures, workshops, panel discussions, and information exchanges), and publishes a national journal of student research. In addition, Psi Chi’s recent national service project illustrates the Society’s renewed commitment to its mission of "student excellence, reflected in scholarly and professional growth within psychology and the ability to impact society positively."

 

Psychology Society Elects Officers for 2006-2007

The Psychology Society, the undergraduate organization of Psychology majors, elected the following officers for the 2006-2007 academic year. Ms. Christina Cotton was elected President, Mr. Joseph Johnson was elected Vice-President, Ms. Christian Williams was elected Secretary, Ms. Latoya Jackson was elected Treasurer, and Mr. James Haynes was elected Parliamentarian.
