Psychology Symposium and Psi Chi

April 25. Friday was Proud Parent Day for us. Geo and I were invited to campus to hear the 3 senior Psychology Honors Rearch presentations. Jenn was up first. Her topic - If studies indicate that married people generally have a healthier life and sense of well-being and happiness than those who are single, what about single people who are in a committed relationship? Can the same be said about them? Do they lead a healthier life-style and and suffer less stress compared to those who are single? She researched and presented the results of her own survey and study of about 150 single men and women. Using power point, Her talk was about 40 minutes. Not only were there faculty in the audience, but also other parents, students, and Jenn's good friends who came in support. She presented like a pro. Afterwards she and the other 2 students were awarded personal plaques for outstanding work.

Next was the Psi Chi Induction ceremony for new members and officers. As the Pres, Jenn lead the ceremony and installation of new members. This too was open for any interested people to see.The President of the college was there, so Jenn also introduced him to give his remarks. I thought Jenn handled it all with style, grace and good sense of humor. Geo said if she can do this, she can do most anything...Thank you, Jenn, for all your hard work, and for making us oh, so very proud.
