PERK Conference Brochure 2017 PERK 2017 36th Annual Meeting of the Association for Psychological and Educational Research in Kansas Benedictine College Atchison, KS Nov. 3 & 4 Welcome to the 36th annual PERK conference, hosted here at Benedictine College on the beautiful Missouri River bluffs! Hospitality is a central charism of the Benedictine tradition, and we pride ourselves on being a warm and welcoming community. Please feel free to contact your host faculty, Psychological Sciences department volunteers, or any member of the college community if there is anything you need during the conference. We have chosen for this year’s conference theme, “Learning and Living in Community”, a theme inspired by recur- ring messages in the research that students will be presenting, the topics of our keynote speakers, and the mission of Benedictine College, to “educate men and women in a community of faith and scholarship.” The psychological sci- ences, while young, have an extensive history of striving to understand and improve how humans view and relate to each other, and it seems in this era of increased public rancor, that we as psychological scientists can serve the greater good by sharing and promoting what we have come to recognize about how best to build harmonious com- munities. We hope that this theme will resonate with you this weekend and inspire you to fulfill part of your calling as students and teachers of psychology: to illuminate and strengthen human communities, broad and small. Further, we are confident you will experience great variety and excitement with this weekend’s events, including key- note speeches covering the latest science on effective learning strategies (Dr. Cindy Nebel) and the power of preju- dice in an era of pervasive uncivil discourse (Dr. Chris Crandall). Further, we are thrilled to share with you our pop- ular annual Graduates Panel, when we bring back a variety of Benedictine Psychological Sciences alums to share their post-baccalaureate experiences and wisdom. Faculty members will also have opportunities to meet and discuss possible research collaborations and issues related to use of statistical packages, and visiting graduate school repre- sentatives will have informative booths available for post-bacc seekers. This weekend you will see much of the famously beautiful Benedictine campus, with meetings, presentations, and activities throughout the college. Buildings where you'll spend your time include the home of our department, Cray- Seaberg Hall, Mother Theresa Center across the street, our state-of-the-art home of the Benedictine Ravens football team Amino Center, the terrific new Murphy Recreation Center, and the crown of the campus, the Ferrell Academic Center on the stunning Missouri River bluffs. And of course don’t forget our Pizza and Movie Night Friday in the comfy Legacy Hall lounge on our campus’s southern edge. We hope you get a chance to experience the riverside community of Atchison while you are here as well, so be sure you pick up your hospitality package from our local businesses and community agencies, who welcome you eagerly. So again, welcome to our lovely campus and to this year’s PERK conference. We sincerely hope your weekend will be filled with memorable hospitality, fascinating and inspiring science, and a joyful time with peers and mentors.
