Psychology Student, Caitlin Macy
Caitlin Macy Wins National Psi Chi Award!

Psychology graduate, Caitlin Macy, (BA, spring 2008) was selected to receive the 2008 "Kay Wilson Leadership Award for Outstanding Chapter President" from the Psi Chi National Office for her service as President of the HPU Chapter of Psi Chi, the National Honor Society for Psychology.  With over 1000 active national chapters, this award is all the more exclusive and prestigious and is one of the highest awards an undergraduate psychology student can win within the discipline. 

Caitlin served as president from May 2007 until graduating in May 2008.  Under her leadership, she gathered the other officers and got them rolling on all sorts of activities.  Events that Caitlin was instrumental in working on or initiating include the monthly Psychology Program Symposiums that were held, our Peer Support Program, and the 2nd Annual Psychology Program Conference and Awards Dinner Banquet, where she received three awards and recognitions including being named the co-recipient of our Outstanding Student of the Year Award.  Caitlin also conceived of and started the Psychology Peer Tutoring Program, which links up students needing tutoring for any psychology course.  

 

Caitlin also served as the Vice President of the Psychology Club, which was named by Student Life and ASHPU as the "Club of the Year" at the 2008 Club Awards Banquet, where they also picked up the "Best Event" award for the Psychology Conference.

Caitlin graduated with a 3.8 overall and 3.9 Psychology GPA, is a President’s Host, and a recipient of the Bossert Scholarship. She served as a research collaborator with area research psychiatrist, Dr. Stefan Bracha, authoring a text chapter and other articles on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.  She plans to continue her education by gaining entry into a clinical psychology program.
