We desire to serve the community in the name of the Lord through service activities, a capella singing groups, and personal ministry. Membership is open to anyone who supports the goals of the organization. Programs include a mentoring program for residents and students, professional development workshops, a lecture series featuring the research of minority faculty members, national recruitment for Yale's residency programs, a quarterly newsletter with information on events that have an impact on minorities at Yale, and a community outreach program including an annual health fair for New Haven and a symposium on health issues in minority communities. Now in its twenty-first year, the Student Psychiatric Society seeks to inform and support student interest in psychiatry. Throughout the year, the society sponsors lunchtime talks with Yale faculty and guest speakers.
Topics cover the spectrum of psychiatric and humanistic issues.
The society also provides opportunities to meet informally with Yale faculty in the Department of Psychiatry. In the past, faculty members have sponsored discussions in their homes. Copyright 1998 Y-Axis. All rights reserved. Comments and questions to Webmasters .
