The Hastings College chapter of Psi Chi, the psychology academic honor society, inducted 11 students during its recent spring ceremony earlier this month.
The purpose of Psi Chi is to recognize and promote excellence in the science and application of psychology. Students who are a psychology major or minor and who have a strong academic record are invited to join. Members are eligible for scholarships, professional development, leadership positions and opportunities to publish and present research.
This year’s Psi Chi inductees include Chloe Blumanthal, a senior from Alliance, and Abby Harveson, a junior from Scottsbluff.
Psi Chi was established in 1929 and remains the single largest psychological association in the world with more than 1,100 active chapters across the globe. The Hastings College chapter was established in 1982 under the leadership of Dr. Chuck Eigenburg and Dr. Robert Shalock.
