If you have the time and interest to do any extra credit work for this course, you could do one of the following:

    1) do an extra case analysis (Mr. T or Mrs.  B).  You'll have to pick up the case from me.

    2)  do an extra outline for any illness of interest found in the DSM IV-R

    3) see any one of the following films, and write a one-page reaction which discusses how the film views mental illness

        a) Girl, Interrupted

        b) Sybil

        c) A Beautiful Mind

        d) The Three Faces of Eve

        e) Fight Club

see me for details on all these...

4) Here are some power point psychohistories done by my students recently.  Feel free to use them as sources (but cite them).  Some are better than others - decide what makes a good presentation.
