Finally, calls for papers for the national Psi Chi events at APS and APA will be distributed in the fall edition of the Eye on Psi Chi. Next summer, two major events are scheduled in the region. Several national award winners are from the Eastern Region and deserve recognition. Last year, two chapters won Regional Chapter Awards, St. Anselm College, New Hampshire as best small chapter, and Hunter College, New York City as best large chapter. Congratulations to Jack Boitano of Fairfield University for an Advisor Research Grant, Norine Jalbert of Western Connecticut State University for a Thelma Hunt Research Award, and Holly Hazlett-Stevens of Pennsylvania State University who won the Edwin B. Newman Graduate Research Award.
Many chapters host local research conferences.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or comments on Psi Chi activities. Last year, I had the pleasure of visiting chapters in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey and was impressed with the work and dedication many students and faculty have given to Psi Chi. With warm regards, Dennis P. Carmody, Ph.D. 201. 915-9418 phone Eastern Vice President, Psi Chi 201.
