WOUPSA Meetings---every Wednesday at 12noon in the Santiam Room of the Werner University Center.

The Western Oregon University Psychology Student Association is a student club which was formed by combining Psi Chi Chapter Honor Society and the local Psychology Club.  By doing this we have hoped to form a more cohesive group of individual psychology students helping each other to progress through the curriculum to that final goal of graduation and if possible, with honors.
There are no requirements to becoming a member of this club.  If you wish to attend the meetings and/or be added to the mailing list, please feel free to join us in the Santiam Room in the Werner University Center every Wednesday at Noon during the regular academic year.

To be a member of Psi Chi, the National Honorary Society in Psychology,  requirements include: 1) Top third GPA of your class, 2) Have taken at least 15 credit hours of Psychology, 3) Received a B average GPA in those Psychology courses, 4) Have maintained high standards.
