Deah S. Quinlivan, Ph.D.
Associate Professor of Psychology
My primary goal as a teacher is to inspire my students to seek the highest levels of achievement. Teaching psychology courses offers many opportunities for developing and refining skills that are valued, such as a desire for knowledge, critical thinking, problem solving, and an ability to communicate effectively with others through writing and speaking. I translate my enthusiasm for both learning and teaching through my high but reasonable standards I have for my students.
