The psychology dept. exodus

To the Editor: I read last week's article on the National Science Foundation decision to end funding for Dartmouth's new Center for Cognitive and Educational Neuroscience with mixed feelings ("College to lose most of $21.8m NSF grant," April 12). As an undergraduate researcher in the Psychological and Brain Sciences department for the past two years, and one of the students asked to present research at the recent NSF review of CCEN, I am glad the issue is being discussed.
