Dear Graduating Psychology Majors of 2021,
Congratulations to all of you from all of us in the Psychology Department! We are one of the largest majors on campus (see how many of you are graduating!), and with good reason. I hope we have taught you things you find meaningful, challenged you with rigorous coursework, and facilitated cura personalis. The recent years leading up to your graduation have been filled with events both tragic and joyous, unjust and also just. These events provide a context to your education and learning. But as the great psychologist and philosopher William James knew, moving forward you will continue to learn, with a context always there, that the “indisputable fact that this world never did anywhere or at any time contain more of essential divinity, or of eternal meaning, than is embodied in the fields of vision” right before your eyes, every day. I hope we have helped you learn to see more clearly! Congratulations again and best wishes to your futures!
Sincerely Yours,
Psychology Major Awardees
