NEEPS 07 - the evolution begins!

As several of you know, I spearheaded the creation of North America's first regional evolutionary psychology society: the NorthEastern Evolutionary Psychology Society (NEEPS). Several students - Mike Camargo and Heather Mangione in particular, were hugely helpful in this initiative.

Our fledgling society has more than 85 members - and our keynote and plenary speakers were, respectively, David Sloan Wilson and Gordon G. Gallup, Jr. Not a bad start!

Pictured here are, from left, super-alum Jay Landolfi, myself (Glenn Geher), and the one-and-only Bucky Markle (class of 2006).

Several more pictures from the conference are found there.

Also, check out this article on our inaugural conference in Entelechy (http://www.entelechyjournal.com/) published by my friend Alice Andrews.

Definitely contact me if you'd like to join!
