While historically, April Fool's Day celebrates fools and silliness, we decided to turn that on it's head and celebrate academic achievement instead.
Faculty, families, and friends turned out on a beautiful, sunny afternoon to celebrate this year's inductees to the Psi Chi honor society. Psi Chi is an international honor society celebrating student work and achievement in psychology. The purpose of the organization is to stimulate and maintain excellence in the pursuit of the science of Psychology.
To be selected, students must be majoring in Psychology or Human Services and be among the top 35% of academic achievement at their institution. At Lasell, that means that students have to maintain a minimum GPA of 3.5 in both their major courses as well as across the college.
This year, we were proud to welcome the following students into Psi Chi:
Erica Burke
Ashley Clary
Emily Cooper
Brittany Gallant
Kaileigh Mulligan
Petar Petrov
Hayden Weltin
Sabrina Saint-Juste
Congratulations!
