While things are a little quieter on campus when students leave, is still humming along, thanks to fantastic staff like our own Molly Moen 😍 who was recognized for her contributions with a 2026 University Staff Excellence Award. 🏆

“Molly’s role places her at the center of our department’s operations and community,” says former department chair Allyson Bennett. “Thus, she contributes in some way to nearly all of our work. It is not an exaggeration to say that her stellar professional performance coupled with her warmth, enthusiasm, and constructive approach is key to our success in building a positive climate and meeting our teaching, research, and service missions.”

We couldn’t agree more. 😊 Congratulations, Molly!

Maya’s recommendations for her fellow majors?

1️⃣ Take Human Sexuality with Dr. Chadwick and The Criminal Mind with Dr. Coffey: “These classes really broadened my interest in various topics within Psychology and helped me understand what my future clients may experience.”

2️⃣ Use the resources offered to you: “Many of the amazing opportunities I was able to participate in were because I was always active in various areas (mostly looking at my emails!)” 👀

Congrats to you, Maya, and to all of our !

Spring 2026 Ashlie is full of good advice (swipe to see her thoughts on taking advantage of all the UW has to offer), so when she says her favorite course was Child Development, we’d agree that signing up for that course is a wise choice!

Congrats to Ashlie and all of our graduates!

Meet four of our outstanding graduating PhD students. At the link below, you can learn more about each of them - like who you’re likely to meet around town at a trivia night or on the ballroom dance floor, who’s continuing their research as a post-doc, and who’s planning on improving their Mandarin before taking their next professional steps in September.

Congratulations to these incredible graduates! We’re excited for what’s ahead for you! 🎉
