Arlington, VA – The Institute for the Psychological Sciences (IPS) continues achieving impressive results.  Along with an ever increasing enrollment, new course offerings and an expanding campus since its founding in 1999, the Catholic graduate school of psychology is announcing the addition of two new members to its board of directors.
 
IPS President Fr. Charles Sikorsky, LC, JD, JCL, said last week that Regina Donahue, M.S., and Frank J. Hanna, III, are now members of the IPS board of directors.
 
"We could not be more delighted to have them join us,” he said.  “They bring unique experiences that will surely enrich our board and help IPS to better fulfill its mission."
 
The new board members join long-time IPS supporter and board member since its founding, Bishop Paul Loverde of Arlington, Va, as well as several other lay people and priests from the Legionaries of Christ.
