[DIV28SUPER] Celebrating Division 28's Moms!
Dear colleagues:
On this Mother's Day weekend, I'd like us to take a moment to celebrate Division 28's mothers. As you know, we've been highlighting work/balance issues in our series of Scientist Spotlight issues, and some of these have showcased very successful examples.
Moms who are psychologists/professionals have a very challenging but also very gratifying life. I'm extremely impressed with the abundance of positive role models that we can point to in our division. (Female ECPs, take note.) So, ladies, a tip of the hat to you on this special weekend. Enjoy and keep up the great work at home, in the office, and on the road !!
Warm wishes, Mark

Dear colleagues:
You probably have received (or are about to receive) your ballot to elect officers for the following Division 28 positions: President-Elect, Member-At-Large, and Division Representative to APA Council. Please note that web-based voting is not an option; you may only submit your vote by mail on the form that APA has provided.
I strongly encourage members to participate by exercising their right to vote. To facilitate this behavior, please consult the most recent issue of our newsletter (which I've attached) to view the statements of all 6 candidates for these 3 positions.
For President-Elect candidates (Bowen and Liguori), see page 7. For Member-At-Large candidates (Johnson and Morgan), see page 9. For Division Representative candidates (Grabowski and Roll), see page 13.

Thanks and best wishes,
Mark

[DIV28M] Scientist Spotlight: May 2011
Hello,
Please enjoy this May edition of the Scientist Spotlight!
Kelly and Sarah
-------------------------------------------
Scientist Spotlight is a monthly series that asks senior and mid-level scientists to provide information on how they choose to balance work and life responsibilities. This column is in response to an overwhelming request from Early Career Psychologists that more information (and assistance) in learning how to balance work and life be made available. We are hopeful that by reading how different scientists balance work and life goals and responsibilities, graduate students and Early Career Psychologists will be better prepared to develop methods for being successful in science while still meeting personal life goals. Overall, we hope you find this series useful and enjoyable!
Please contact Kelly Dunn (kdunn9@jhmi.edu) or Sarah Tragesser (stragesser@tricity.wsu.edu) to nominate someone to be highlighted in this series.
