75TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS
In honor of Psi Chi's 75th anniversary, special anniversary celebrations are being planned at all six regional conventions, and at the 2004 APS and APA national conventions. Psi Chi strongly encourages you to attend these unique celebrations by planning (and saving!) now. Your chapter may want to hold special fundraisers this spring to raise travel funds.
