The Council on Academic Affairs will cover several topics including a pair of course revi- sions and proposals in the psychology depart- ment at its first meeting at 2 p.m. Thursday in Booth Library, room 4440. The psychology department put forth two new course proposals, which are PSY 3760 Judgment and Decision Making, and PSY 4810 Neuropsychopharmacology. Psychology professor Jeffrey Stowell said PSY 3760 would run parallel to the Cogni- tive and Social Psychology courses and there would be some overlap in the subject matter. The course will focus on how humans make both good and bad decisions.

By Cassie Buchman News Editor | @cjbuchman

Groups from many areas of East- ern’s campus came together for one day during Pantherpalooza. This year, because of weather con- cerns, the event was moved to the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union’s Grand and University Ball- rooms. The organizations used differ- ent tactics to get people to join their clubs. To draw people to their table, the Meditation Club had a pitcher of sweet iced tea and they told students about the benefits of meditation. Ali Fischer, a junior nursing major, said the club could help people take a step back and take a look at their life. “People have passed by and said, ‘I didn’t know (this club) was here,’” Fischer said. Chris Adams, a graduate student studying business administration, said it was a bit harder being inside the Union for this year’s Pantherpalooza. “How many people are going to come out of their way to be here ver- sus going to the South Quad and hav- ing all that foot traffic and all the freshman looking for things,” Adams said. “But it’s the weather, so what can you do?” Jerome Hampton, a junior business management major, said they planned on meeting and greeting people to get people aware of the Black Student Union and the work they do on cam- pus.
