A group of Hamilton students and psychology professors Jean Burr and Lynn Evans took a trip to the New England Center for Children (NECC) in Southborough, Mass. on Friday, Sept. 26, to learn more about the center's programming. NECC is a community-based residential school for children and adults with autism, behavior disorders, mental retardation and other related developmental disabilities.
Hamilton maintains a program with the center for students interested in applied psychology and education of children with special needs. A dozen or more Hamilton graduates are employed at the facility, according to its founder and executive director, Vinnie Strully '69.
