The 2005 APAGS/Division 35 Collaboration Project

www.apa.org/apags/profdev/Div35project.html

Consistent with Dr. Cynthia de las Fuentas' (then Division 35 President) presidential initiative to "make feminism relevant" to diverse people, the American Psychological Association of Graduate Students (APAGS) and The Society for the Psychology of Women (Division 35) collaborated on a project that encouraged graduate students to attend and write about feminist-relevant APA Convention programs at the 2005 APA Convention in Washington, DC. Participating graduate students were selected by Sara Wright, Ph.D., the 2003-2005 Division 35 student representative, and Nadia T. Hasan, M.A., the APAGS-Committee on Ethnic Minority Affairs (CEMA) Chair. These graduate students were asked to write about APAGS and Division 35 sponsored feminist-relevant convention programs. The subsequent reaction pieces demonstrate the knowledge and encouragement gained by graduate students who attended these convention programs. Pleas feel free to contact Nadia T. Hassan or Sara Wright if you have any questions about the project.

Please note that this collaboration project was established by the taskforce “to make feminism relevant” for diverse people, chaired by Dr. Debra Kawahara. Each reaction piece will be published in Division 35's quarterly newsletter, The Feminist Psychologist.
