Join us in celebrating the 50th anniversary of the UIC Psychology Department. We have a whole weekend of events planned for May 13 - 15, 2016. There will be one more event two weeks later (on Saturday, May 28, 2016) during APS (because so many were already scheduled to come in to Chicago for APS, and they can't make two trips so close together). Please feel free to attend one or both weekends of the extended celebration.
MAY 13 - 15, 2016
For those coming from out-of-town, we have reserved a block of rooms at the Crowne Plaza Chicago Metro Downtown hotel. They are available at the discounted rate of $199/night. Click here for the registration code.
