EXTRA CREDIT

There are two extra credit opportunities for all psychology students this semester. A major part of the field of Psychology is continuing to attend lectures to get information from people working in the field. Over the next few weeks, there are a couple of great opportunities to do so here at SCCC.

You can earn up to 5 points on the midterm exam by attending one of the following events and writing a one-page paper on your experience.

September 28th, 11:00am, Montauk Point Room: Rehabilitation through the Arts: is a presentation on a fascinating new approach in Forensic Psychology which uses the creative arts to teach individuals in the prison system to develop life skills and change behavior patterns to reduce recidivism.

October 5th, 9:30am: Mildred Green Room: Health Brain, Happy Life: Come learn about how the fascinating concept of Neuroplasticity can impact the structure and function of your brain. The focus will be on behaviors that can have a positive and negative effect on the brain and will include survivors of traumatic brain injury discussing how different behaviors can effect your health and life.
