Psi Beta:
What is Psi Beta?
Psi Beta
is the national honor society in psychology for
community and junior colleges. It was founded for the
purpose of stimulating, encouraging and recognizing
students' outstanding scholarship and interest in
psychology. The society functions as a federation of
chapters located at over 100 accredited two-year
colleges.
Students
become members by joining chapters at their colleges.
The chapters are operated by the Psi Beta student
members and faculty sponsors. The national office
coordinates and records activities and files
memberships, which can be verified for reference
purposes. A National Council guides the affairs of the
organization and determines policy.
Psi Beta
is an affiliate of the
American Psychological Association (APA) and the
American
Psychological Society (APS), and is the first
two-year society to become a member of the Association
of College Honor Societies.
The MCC
Psi Beta Chapter is very active (over 350 members since
its inception in 1989) and has received numerous awards!
