In March 2006, PhD students took the initiative -under the auspices of the PhD director, Cathy Campbell- to launch the ISPN in an attempt to share the views, achievements and news -academic and non-academic- of the members of the Social Psychology Institute.
Four PhD students, Melissa Nolas, Cathy Vaughan, Carlos Bruen and Stavroula Tsirogianni, formed the editorial team and decided to work collaboratively on the design and editing of ISPN, which was aimed to be an internal -only- resource. The first issue received a very warm welcome from all members and this is how we decided to make it available for downloading from the Institute's website.
The newsletter has been proved an excellent way to keep up with everything that happens in the Institute, while supporting and enhancing the visibility of all members -wherever they are in the world. Each issue is published every quarter and contains information about the academic and social activities undertaken by members of the Institute including:
-
Institute Happenings
-
Research
-
Publications
-
Forthcoming events
-
New Members
-
Recommended Readings
ISPN is for everyone that is interested in keeping up with information about the Institute and cutting edge knowledge about Social Psychology in general.
