Nationally recognized poster comes from new program

Beth Seebach (Psychology) and Cherie Smischney (2008 alumna) will be presenting a poster on “Body Image” at the annual meeting of the American Psychological Association in Toronto. This is research from the Body Image Collaborative Research lab. The Collaborative Research labs were started in Fall of 2007 in the Psychology Department to allow students to gain research skills by working collaboratively with faculty members and other students in designing and conducting research. Current labs are exploring Body Image and Exercise; Alcohol Use in College Students; Parenting Style and Alcohol Use; and Aggression.
