The 22nd Annual Ohio Undergraduate Psychology Research Conference (OUPRC) will be held at Cedarville University on Saturday, April 19th, 2008.  Cedarville is located in the greater-Dayton, Ohio area.  The conference is open to all undergraduate students.  Both undergraduates that are presenting and underclassmen who simply wish to experience the conference and discover what it is all about are encouraged to attend.  The OUPRC provides an opportunity for undergraduate students to present research findings to both peers and faculty.  If you wish to learn more about the OUPRC, you can visit the website by clicking here.

4/4/07:
The Disabled Veterans Associations Crisis Services Team is looking for volunteers for their crisis telephone line.  Prior to working, volunteers would learn how to assess for lethality and de-escalate situations where Veterans or family memebers are at risk.  All DVA Crisis Services volunteers who wish to answer calls that come through the crisis line begin with 40 hours of training.  After that, volunteers spend time listening to crisis calls before actually answering calls themselves.  Opportunities are availabe at the Hotline for students completing practicums and/or internships.  If interested, call Crisis Services Director at 440-885-1944.
