ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This particular book, like others in the Great Jobs series, has been a wonderful adventure for both of us in deepening and furthering our own knowledge of career opportunities. One of the most rewarding aspects of writing Great Jobs for Psychology Majors has been in sharing our work and, in turn, being the beneficiaries of the expertise and wisdom of many wonderful colleagues.
We want to thank our fine editor, Sarah Kennedy, for her interest, enthusiasm, and responsiveness.
The following people were extraordinarily generous of their time and spoke with us about the employment of psychology majors in the various paths we have described: Ken Grantham, Forestville Health and Rehabilitation Center; Joyce Perrotte, Medical Center Hospital of Vermont; Elaine Waters and Anthony Zipple for their help on residential care issues; Dorae Block at William M. Mercer, Inc.; and the following three Plymouth State College colleagues: Merryl Reichbach for expressive therapy, Suz-Ann Ring for human resources, and Wendy Palmquist, Ph.D., for teaching.
