Organizations: Psi Chi

At Kent State there are two groups for psychology undergraduate majors: Psi Chi and The Psychology Club.

The KSU chapter of Psi Chi, a national honor society for Psychology majors and minors, is a professional psychology fraternity for those students who have excelled in the academics of psychology. The organization hosts meetings every other week to provide opportunities for the members to learn about professions in psychology and the route to Graduate School. Currently, the organization is working to expand and focus on giving back to the community. Psi Chi recently hosted a fundraiser for Safer Futures, a battered women’s shelter in Portage County. The band Wiremother, composed of psychology professors and Kent State psychology affiliates, donated their time and talents to help raise over $500 for the shelter.

Undergraduates must be Psychology majors or minors with a GPA of 3.0 or higher who have completed at least 9 hours of Psychology.
