Each spring, the Department of Psychology recognizes both a UB undergraduate and graduate student with the Murray Levine Award for exemplary service to the Department that enhances a sense of community within the Department and/or interactions between the Department and the broader UB community. This award is named in honor of former faculty member Dr. Murray Levine, and was made possible by generous gift from Dr. Levine's former student and (UB alum) Dr. Robert Fink.
