Dear SERD student members,
It is with great pleasure that we serve you this year as the new
SERD student representatives! We look forward to continuing the great
leadership of our previous representatives, Sara Cho Kim and Rachel
Navarro, and are very excited to be your voice within SERD. But first,
let us introduce ourselves!
Kenneth is a third year doctoral student from Penn State and is
planning on applying for internship this year. He is from Taiwan and
his research interests center on perfectionism and the Asian/Chinese
population. He is married with two kids and enjoys editing home
videos, playing softball, and traveling in his spare time. Supavan is
a fourth year doctoral student from the University of Missouri-Kansas
City where she is involved in testing and counseling advanced
practicums and is working on her dissertation. Her research interests
include refugee/immigrant issues, international students, social
justice advocacy, and spirituality. In her spare time, Supavan travels
and sings with a local choir.
To continue with the work of the previous representatives, we are
still looking for symbols of unity for the SERD logo contest.
Specifically, we want a logo that will reflect the mission and goals
of SERD in color and design. We know that we have many creative SERD
members and invite you to put your creativity to work! If chosen, you
will have a direct impact on SERD for years to come! Deadline for
submission: October 15th
Please send entries to:
Supavan Khamphakdy-Brown
University of Missouri-Kansas City,
5100 Rockhill Road, 215 ED,
Kansas City, MO 64110
or to sskm94@umkc.edu
We have many high hopes for the coming year. Our goals are to
generate excitement within the SERD student community, connection
among its members, and visibility within Division 17. We hope that you
will be an active part of this mission as well. Stay tuned as we bring
you updates soon!
Kenneth and Supavan

SERD - SAG Connection
The Student Affiliate Group (SAG) is
a national graduate student organization associated with the Society
of Counseling Psychology, Division 17 of the American Psychological
Association. The primary goal of SAG is to meet the ever-changing
needs of students in counseling psychology by keeping them informed of
professional issues and by enabling them to develop their identity
within the field of counseling psychology.
SAG is currently being coordinated
by graduate students at Marquette University, which will continue to
serve as the host institution of SAG until August 2007. One of the
chief goals as host institution is to facilitate communication and
interaction among students.
Becoming a member of SAG has many
benefits, both personal and professional. For more information, visit
