The Aging Club is open to all UW-Green Bay undergraduate and graduate students, and others throughout our community! Our university is proud to be designated as an Age-Friendly University—a recognition of our commitment to education, research, and engagement around issues of aging. The Aging Club builds on this commitment by creating a member-led space to explore topics related to aging, health, and mental health.  

The club will meet virtually every month, offering opportunities to:
📌Connect with peers and others in our community who share an interest in aging and wellness.
📌Engage in thoughtful discussions on the challenges and opportunities of aging.
📌Use your creativity to design activities, projects, or initiatives—separate from other activities or coursework--that promote awareness and understanding.
📌Provide and develop leadership skills while contributing to our university’s age-friendly mission.
📌And, especially with the help from you, we hope to provide an intergenerational exchange where younger and older students can learn from one another!

Interested in joining or have a question about the Aging Club? Email Dr. Stephanie Rhee at [email protected].

We just celebrated the 20th anniversary of Camp Lloyd ans its huge impact on the Green Bay community. Organized by our amazing Professor Emerita Illene Cupid, Camp Lloyd is a camp for kids to find community as they go through the loss of a loved one. In this camp, the children learn that grief is normal and that it is okay to still act like kids and have fun. After the ceremony, the whole camp went outside and planted a tree in memory of their loved ones. 🌳

Dr. Nehrkorn-Bailey and her lab's research focuses on the intricacy of adult development and aging with a specific emphasis on health promotion. Much of her work has focused on adult physical activity engagement and exploring the motivational barriers to engagement. More recently, she has studied the impact of negative views of aging, awareness of age-related change, and age stereotypes as specific barriers to physical activity.

In collaboration with Dr. Jo Morrissey, Dr. Nehrkorn-Bailey is conducting a focus group study to learn about adults' awareness of health-related changes. The anonymously-recorded responses from participants will be analyzed and coded to create a new questionnaire that assesses awareness of health, health behaviors, and health changes in middle and older adulthood, which is a gap in the current literature. Students will play a crucial role in coding participants' responses and contributing to this new questionnaire.

For the Fall 2026 semester, the HAP Lab will meet weekly. Students are required to attend this weekly meeting. Along with attending the weekly meeting, students are expected to be present for 6 hours throughout the week to work on PSYCH 492-related work. Lab hours will be set up around students' schedules. Students may have the opportunity to contribute to and present at regional and national conferences, as well as work on manuscripts to submit for publication in scientific journals.

Minimum Qualifications:
📚GPA of at least 3.0
📚Available for a weekly meeting and for 6 additional hours per week

Preferred Qualifications:
📌Psychology major
📌Commitment to at least 2 semesters in the lab

Dr. Nehrkorn-Bailey will contact eligible candidates for a brief interview. For questions regarding the HAP Lab, please e-mail Dr. Nehrkorn-Bailey ([email protected]).
