Episode 4: Dr. Russell Romeo

In this episode, we get personal talking to Barnard alum and Sexuality Studies student Molly Schwartz about all things sex, her entrance into clinical psychology, and our favorite orgasm guru, Betty Dodson! This conversation, which was recorded in November, occurred following the famous sexual feminist's death, so...this is one is dedicated to you, Betty. 

For Episode 4, we have Barnard's Psychology Department Chair, Dr. Russell Romeo! We do a deep dive into Dr. Romeo's journey into psychology, his experience as an employee at Barnard, and his fascinating life's research.

In this episode, we sit down with the head of the Anxiety Lab at Barnard (and my very own mentor!), Dr. Michael Wheaton, to discuss all things grad-school-related.

In the second episode of Get Psyched, Parsa Najmaie, a 2019 Barnard Psychology Alumni, gets real about being a research assistant during COVID. If you want to learn more about working in a psych lab, the hardships of being an RA, and the psychology of powerlifting, then tune in this week! 

Welcome to "Get Psyched!"! In this first episode, we hear from Margot Deregnaucourt, the head of Marketing for Barnard College's psychology club, Psyched. Together, we discuss what it's like to study psychology and how being an international student has impacted her relationship with the field.
