Wanting to teach at a small, lib eral arts school, Catherine finds Guilford to possess strong aca demic rigor in addition to the strong emphasis placed on actual teaching. "One of the things I like about Guilford is the importance they place on teaching; whereas, at a larger school, professors would be more concerned about research work," she said. Catherine integrates her faith in teaching in her General Psy chology and Introduction to Clini cal Psychology classes. Here she develops her personal teaching style. "In all my classes, whether they are lecture or seminar-style classes, I try to get as much ac tive participation as possible. I find my students to be more highly motivated than average," she said.
