Thank you for helping make Psi Chi the success it has been during this past academic term. The Psi Chi National Office wishes you rest from this past semester and looks forward to an exciting spring full of events in which all members of Psi Chi can take part. Below are three announcements we would like to draw your chapter's attention to.

NEW MANAGING EDITOR OF PSI CHI JOURNAL
Warren Jones, PhD, professor of psychology at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, has been appointed as the new managing editor of the Psi Chi Journal of Undergraduate Research. Dr. Stephen Davis, who has served as managing editor since the journal's inception in 1996, has retired from his professorship at Emporia State University, but will continue to work with the journal until the end of 2001. Beginning January 1, 2002, however, Dr. Jones will begin his role as managing editor of the journal and should receive all submissions to the journal. His contact information and the full announcement regarding his appointment may be found here.
