G. Stanley Hall/Harry Kirke Wolfe Lectures at the APA Convention
Each year, the APA Education Directorate and The Society for the Teaching of Psychology (Division 2) sponsor the G. Stanley Hall/Harry Kirke Wolfe Lecture Series at the APA Convention. Delivered by prominent researchers and scholars in Psychology, the Hall Lectures feature the latest in psychological research for teachers of introductory psychology.

New Award to Recognize Contributions in Education and Training
The Board of Educational Affairs has initiated a new award that will recognize distinguished contributions for the education and training of child and adolescent mental health psychologists. The award will recognize American Psychological Association or Canadian Psychological Association accredited doctoral and internship programs, as well as postdoctoral training programs, that prepare future psychologists to promote the optimal development of child and adolescent mental health within the context of families, schools, or communities. Criteria and the process that will be used in considering nominations will be developed in the upcoming months.
Look for future information in upcoming issues of the APA Division Dialogue and on the Education Directorate website at www.apa.org/ed.
