This class is intended to replace a standard college introductory course to Psychology. However, you will probably find that based on your teacher/TA/peers you will invariably accomplish nothing. Expect inside jokes to rise exponentially, especially those involving Freud and his outdated theories about the mind.

Also, you will receive a book that you may not even look at (depending on your instructor), not that it matters. It is called: 40 Studies That Changed Psychology. Very good book, if you're actually interested in psychology it's fun to read. It appears as though recently the TIP Psychology curriculum has changed, however, for students at Davidson, Austin College, and ASU have reported receiving the textbook called Exploring Psychology (Eighth Edition) by David G. Myers. There has been much speculation as to why exactly this book has been chosen instead to educate young children of approximately 13 years old, for its pages are filled with comics and "jokes" that are meant to be humorous (but are not) and almost every other page refers to something suggestive or sexual. Also, if you try to explain why you drew a comic by saying it was in the book, it will not be accepted. At Davidson, it is a Psychology tradition to sign the blank pages at the back of others' books like a yearbook on the last day of term.

Term II Trinity 2015

Taught by Ryan Donaldson and TA'd by Alyson Mann

Psychology enjoyed breaks filled with TiPs, kickball, and the occasional crab walk race requested by Aly for her amusement. Also, by the end of term, psych had created a rivalry with many of the other classes, the most prominent being the dispute with Biochem. There were games of kickball and rapbattles throughout the term, concluding with a giant rap battle including 10 (?) of 18 classes. Psych was definitely the spirit of this term. The class also created a giant shared folder in google drive featuring pictures taken throughout the term as well as a touching slideshow made by the one and only Micky G to remind them of the great times they had (and also to cry over at one in the morning in their beds all around the country while stuffing their faces with chocolate and rattling off psych cheers.
