Not as dumb as you look
Marty, Stephanie, and Elliott speak about teaching private practice to students, the viability of 4 + 1 programs, and what we would have changed about our own marriage ceremonies, are just a few of the questions on this episode of circular firing squad.
Stephanie
Why isn't "starting your own private practice" an elective course offered in most counselor education classes?
Elliott
What do you think the viability of a 4+1 program is for counseling students? This would shorten their undergrad by about 12-18 hours they could "double dip" and apply to both the master's and their bachelor's degrees.
Marty
Despite programs being eliminated at universities based on enrollment, what program/major/course should universities not eliminate?
Stephanie
I need a movie or show suggestion
Elliott
What do you think all the "hoo-ha" is about Al? How much do you understand it and what do you think its impact is?
Marty
What would you have changed about your own wedding ceremony?
Final Shot Morning drink. What you drink to start the day.

Marty

Stephanie
