This review process often includes an extensive amount of paperwork to help guide students who have been struggling in one manner or another, and creating the documentation needed for extreme cases of student misbehavior or incompetence; 3) create or supervise detailed plans for remediation when a student has experienced major struggles in their professional development; 4) provide mentoring guidance, conduct role-played interviews, and write individualized letters of endorsement for all advanced students applying for their pre-doctoral internship; 5) maintain organized and current records for all clinical students and many alumni; 6) provide documentation to the Office of Graduate Studies to facilitate registration for doctoral commencement; 7) provide documentation of graduate training to the State Board of Psychology for students who are applying for licensure; 8) oversee the plans for clinical field placements; 9) initiate a strategy meeting and reception for all field placement supervisors; 10) chair all Clinical Program Business Meetings that occur approximately 10 times per year; 11) strive to serve as a strong role model for the scientist-practitioner, by continuing to publish journal articles and present at national conferences, aiming for an international reputation within the field of clinical psychology, while nonetheless remaining active each week in the front-lines delivery of clinical services; 12) serve as faculty liaison to the VA Medical Center psychology training committee. The responsibilities of the DCT also involve a number of significant annual projects including: A) track issues related to maintaining the clinical program's full accreditation from the American Psychological Association and anticipate changes needed to effectively prepare for the next self-study; B) supervise the completion of APA's annual report; C) review and revise our specialty examination rules and procedures; D) review and revise clinical evaluation forms to remain compatible with the latest changes in APA expectations; E) update the clinical program handbook of rules and guidelines, and distribute the handbook to all clinical students; F) supervise the modifications to the psychology training clinic manual as well as request administrative approval for the faculty practice plan; G) create and personally distribute the annual newsletter to alumni; H) attend the annual meeting of Council of University Directors of Clinical Psychology Programs and participate in e-mail discussions of emerging training issues in the field; I) assist with funding allocation when relevant; J) review student progress and select a recipient for one of the clinical program awards for graduate student excellence in teaching, research, therapy, distinguished alumni or faculty recognition; K) oversee and help to coordinate the graduate admissions process, that often includes a review of more than 200 applications and conduct on-site interviews of the top 30 applicants; L) hold an orientation meeting for new clinical students; M) host the

bi-annual social events for clinical faculty, students, and field placement supervisors; N) monitor any updates that may be needed to keep the web site current with program changes or new rules imposed by the APA Office of Accreditation; O) organize the structure and requirements for special examinations; P) arrange topics and identify qualified instructors for the specialty mini-courses, and guide the instructor toward proper goals, format, and grading of the specialty course; Q) nominate speakers for the colloquia series and occasionally fill in as emergency replacement speaker; R) identify qualified instructors for the assessment training sequence; S) consult with department chair regarding the proper allocation of tuition waivers and stipend support; T) help to advertise the clinical program through a high quality program brochure.
