Woody Hayes (Go Bucks!)... Bo Schembechler (Booooo!)... Benjamin Harrison (23rd president of US)... Ben Roethlisberger (superbowl winning quarterback)... Holly Chalk (soon).... what do they have in common?!?!?!?!They are all GREAT things to come out of Miami University. No, not the one in Florida, the ORIGINAL Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. That's right! In late July, I am headed to not-so-sunny Miami University to begin the predoctoral internship that will FINALLY allow me to graduate and become Dr. Holly!!!!
I will be spending my days in the beautiful NEW student counseling center at Miami University (see photo above). I will be counseling undergraduates, supervising clinical PhD students, and teaching my very own class at Miami University (the 26th ranked public university in the country).
I want to thank everyone who has supported me during this time. I know that I have been a little :) stressed out lately, but it has all been worth it. This is going to be a great opportunity for me and I could not be happier. Thank you all!
~ Holly

For those keeping track at home, Holly got her #1 choice for her internship. I think that's a credit to the great professional that she is, and hopefully a good indicator of even better things to come!
Good job, dear! I know this is where you wanted to go all along!
Yea Holly! I thought that was your first choice, but of course Jason would never confirm it. See you do have more control over him than his mother, as it should be! Dad and I could not be any more proud of you. You have worked so hard for this opportunity. I'm glad Miami was smart enought to realize what a prize you are! Congratulations!
Love,
Mom Chalk
found this in google blog search. i also got my first pick today at Univ of Delaware at their counseling center. one of my friends went to undergrad at Miami and loved it. greta school, well funded, beautiful campus. best of luck.
Hi Sweetheart,
I am so proud of you. This confirms my belief that Holly can do anything she sets her mind to do.
Miami University is fortunate to be your first choice and I am happy you will be spending your year away at a place where you wanted to be.
I know that you and Jas will find a way to make it a positive year despite your separation.
You're the best !!!
Love ya, Mom
Sorry this is so late...I HAVE been in sunny Florida and just got back. I'm not surprised at all b/c you work harder than anyone I've ever known. No one deserves this more! I'm so proud of you.
xoxo
Love your big (little) sister.
