Selig worked for eight years as the school psy- chologist at Griffin Memorial School in Litchfield, NH, which nominated her for the award. Today, she is at the Shaker Regional School District in Belmont, NH. Selig is also the New Hampshire state delegate to the National Asso- ciation of School Psy- chologists (NASP) and a past-president of NHASP. Recognized for her local, state and national contri- butions to the field, she has become a leader in revising the standards for school psychologists in NH and is now developing a school psychologist rubric for teacher evaluation there. “Tari goes out of her way to help the students she serves to excel, and she puts this same level of dedication into her coursework at 91�㽶��Ƶ��������,” says Jason Kaplan, School Psychology Faculty Member at the College. “I look forward to watching as Tari continues to grow as a student and a school psychology professional.” Tari Selig NEW HAMPSHIRE’S SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGIST OF THE YEAR themselves to children’s terrible stories, which the team processed at regular debriefings each night. He said, “They generously were bearing witness to others’ emotional pain and feeling vicarious traumatization of their own.” Students reported that many of the children they had talked with had never shared what happened to them with anyone because they’d never been given the opportunity. Until January 2014, Joseph traveled with his students to provide invaluable help during this specific and horrific time in history. The William James commitment to learning in unfamiliar environ- ments has now transitioned to the Center for Multicultural and Global Mental Health, which sends students to several foreign countries for similar immersion programs and the challeng- ing opportunities of working with and learning sensitivities to new cultures. 2014 Red Batons: (top row) Molly Sullivan, Sister Judith Brun, Herlinda Tin, Mike Croke, (bottom row) Andrew Taytshin, Miram Stoll, Ellie Barch, Nicole Carabello, Dot Kelleher and Lionel Joseph.
