Congratulations to all the new members of Psi Chi! The induction ceremony took place yesterday afternoon and was a wonderful event to welcome new students and elect the new executive board for the 2010-2011 school year. After time to mingle and eat snacks, we heard from Prof. Michele Tugade (the Psi Chi Faculty Advisor) about the chapter and its goals and then Prof. Randy Cornelius spoke about the history of Psi Chi at Vassar, emphasizing the 10 students who took initiative to start the Vassar chapter 15 years ago. We then welcomed the new members who signed the member book and accepted their certificates and membership cards, concluding in a candle lighting ceremony to mark the occasion. Finally, we elected the new executive board officers:

President: Alex Crocker

Vice President: Cali Calarco

Secretary: Molly Arnn

Treasurer: Moe Byrne

Public Relations: Holly Norgard

Congratulations to the new e-board members! We know Vassar’s Psi Chi chapter is in good hands and we wish you the best of luck this coming year.
