Faculty, students, and alumni from AUNE were active at and around the APA convention in San Francisco this month!
Antioch Alumni Gathering
Faculty, students, and alumni from Antioch’s three PsyD Programs (New England, Seattle, and Santa Barbara) celebrated their common purpose at a gathering on the fringes of the convention. It’s nice to meet some of the real people who comprise our broader Antioch PsyD community!
Kathi Borden launches her role as incoming editor of the APA journal, Professional Psychology: Research and Practice. Kathi attended a meeting of psychology journal editors that focused on sharing ideas and networking.
As APA’s Federal Education Advocacy Coordinator for New England (a role she has held for over a decade), Kathi also attended the 2018 Advocacy Breakfast at the convention. In addition to catching up on APA’s legislative priorities, several PsyD graduates presented on their experience of federal student loan repayment programs, discussing how these programs reduced their anxiety about student debt and helped make it possible for them to attend graduate school.
Alicia MacDougall (3rd year PsyD student) was appointed as Co-Chair of APA Division 39 (Society for Psychoanalysis and Psychoanalytic Psychology) Graduate Student Committee. Term begins September 1, 2018
