Dear Colleagues,

The  <A HREF="www.AcademyAnalyticArts.org">Academy for the Study of the 
Psychoanalytic Arts</A> would like to announce a new paper recently published 
in its Library section:

<A HREF="www.academyanalyticarts.org/kava15.html">Mandatory Continuing 
Education (MCE):  Industrializing and Deprofessionalizing Psychology</A> by 
Patrick B. Kavanaugh, Ph.D.

and an upcoming program by one of its members.  On January 12, 2003 Marvin 
Hyman, Ph.D. will be presenting a paper Whose Psychoanalytic Education Is It 
Anyhow? at the Michigan Society for Psychoanalytic Psychology monthly 
meeting, held at Providence Hospital in the Fischer Auditorium beginning at 
11:00 a.m. 

The abstract of the paper is as follows:  

Whose Psychoanalytic Education Is It Anyhow?

This presentation will review psychoanalytic education, its institutions, and 
its policies as these have developed over the years.  I will also address 
where the essential responsibility for such education has been traditionally 
located.  I shall argue that responsibility for a psychoanalyst's education 
can, from a psychoanalytic perspective, rest only with the developing analyst 
and that educational approaches locating responsibility elsewhere are 
essentially anti-psychoanalytic.

You can obtain more information on the program by visiting the MSPP website 
at <A HREF="www.mspp.net">www.mspp.net</A>  Hope to see you there!

Happy Holidays.
