I attended Morehead as a graduate student, getting my MS in Psychology. While the Experimental faculty, for the most part, seem to be very knowledgeable (publications multiple times a year and receiving more grant funding than any other department), the Clinical faculty seems a bit preoccupied. I understand that they are required to supervise past-graduates up to 5 years as necessary for for the grad's clinician status, but this is something that the program should take into consideration. Nearly all of the faculty in both programs seem to foster a very competitive and cut-throat environment. While this may be helpful in some areas of study, psychology is not one of them.

Not all of the faculty are like this. Dr. Remillard, for example, does not fit this standard. He does not play favorites at all and pushes students to perform to their best, regardless of others' success. Dr. Butz is very similar.

Most of the faculty members do not get along with one another, so it should come as no surprise that they support the same behavior in their students. The faculty members do not support their graduate students, as teaching or research professionals. Though, if you are good at manipulating people, they do play favorites.

Compared with other graduate schools, Morehead's academic environment and student support is embarrassing, and to put simply the entire program needs to reworked. At the very least, it seems that the faculty have all grown into a rut, and need a refresher on how to interact with and support their students. This is a view supported by both clinical and experimental students.

I can sum it up this way: I regret my decision to study at Morehead. If I could redo it, I would choose elsewhere. If I could advise others, it would be to do the same. I would not recommend the graduate psychology program to anyone.
