I was born and raised in Ethiopia but now I live in Arlington, VA. I am a senior majoring in Psychology and minoring in conflict analysis & resolution with a concentration in interpersonal conflict. I want to pursue graduate school in Industrial Organizational Psychology/Human resource. I was inducted in Psi Chi spring of 2011. I am currently the secretary for Psi Chi. My role as the secretary entails taking notes on discussed topics during our meetings and checking/sending emails plus any other responsibilities that may come up depending on the need.

Hi all! My name is Christine Harchick and I am currently the treasurer of Psi Chi. Besides the obvious fact that I'm a Psyc major, I am also a senior and getting ready to graduate in the Spring. I have a minor in Tourism and Events Management and hope to one day be working at a university, in direct involvement with students. University Life/Students Affairs has so many dynamics, but I just love working with my peers. We are so excited to be planning lots of fun events for the Psyc department!
