Update on Psi Chi's Response to COVID-19

Abstract

When Psi Chi Journal Editor Dr. Debi Brannan approached us with an invitation to write about Psi Chi’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, we were pleased to share with Journal readers. Just as the past 12 months have not been “business as usual” for any of our members, neither has it been for Psi Chi’s staff or Board of Directors. None of us expected to face a global pandemic, sudden massive economic stress, societal reckoning on racial justice, or political turmoil—much less all of these in the same year. Even so, the 14 staff members, nine Board members from universities across the United States, our Journal Editor and five associate editors, as well as committee chairs and members around the globe have worked tirelessly to support Psi Chi’s members in the moment, as well as to ensure the viability of our Society into the future.
