A group of eight Elizabethtown College psychology students, accompanied by Professor of Psychology Michael Roy and Assistant Professor Jennifer Wittmeyer, recently traveled to Washington, D.C., to present their research at the annual Association for Psychological Science (APS) Conference<\/a>, held May 22 through 25.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Presenting the research I had worked on all year and networking with other psychologists in my field at APS this year felt so rewarding and exciting,\u201d Delaney Peckham \u201925 said. \u201cI would not have known about or been able to engage in this opportunity without the support of the Psychology faculty here at Etown.”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In addition to presenting, students engaged with other presenters, attended a number of talks, and took part in networking opportunities. While in the nation\u2019s capital, the group also explored the city and visited the National Zoo. Dean of the School of Sciences and Health, Alan C. Utter, joined the group for part of the trip.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur students did a fantastic job presenting at the conference,\u201d Dr. Roy said. \u201cMore than once, people were surprised to find out that they were undergraduates given the high quality of their work.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
