Student Groups

PSI CHI PET

Part of Psychology's commitment to its undergrads is to support student groups where our majors can participate in a range of activities that not only enrich their college experience by forming lasting friendships but will also provide outreach services to the community and additional opportunities for engaging in the science and discipline of psychology.

Psychology Engagement Team (PET)

Overview

Our goal is to have fun while we provide outreach to the community in ways that can have a positive impact on someone’s life. Even if you participate in other student groups or through a sorority/fraternity, PET will provide you with an opportunity to meet other psychology majors who share your interests and may have common career goals. Through PET, you can build lasting connections for life after college and into grad school and jobs. Check out Facebook and more and Get Psyched!

Activities

Each year PET plans and participates in a wide variety of events to get Psychology students connected to the discipline, the department, and their peers. The Halloween Hunt is a campus-wide scavenger hunt where students can solve riddles to win prizes. We also plan Mental Health Awareness week every March where students can attend many events that provide mental health education and outreach. This week-long event is a collaboration between PET and other groups across campus to plan events ranging from crafting donations for Gompers children, to walking in the Out Of The Darkness Campus Walk, or attending health wellness talks.

PET meets every Monday at 7:30 PM in PSYN 334. Everyone is welcome!
