This was the final session - a panel discussion on academic freedom. The annual IAPST symposium has concluded. It was a good setting for the exchange of ideas and an opportunity to build relationships across a diverse group of colleagues.

I came across this featured photo on Wheaton’s social media and thought it would be fun to repost. Loved these moments with graduating SGI members! Mia Menassa

Today is our doctoral psychology graduation ceremony. Just this past week we learned that at its meeting on April 15-18, 2026, the Commission on Accreditation (CoA) voted to grant our new Ph.D. program “accredited, on contingency” status with an initial date of accreditation of November 25, 2025.

I am so happy to celebrate with the Ph.D. students graduating, as well as the Psy.D. Students who are graduating (whose program has been accredited since 1998).
