N2 - A student's retrospective on psychology graduate training at the University of Arizona in the early 1960s attempts to capture the richness of opportunity available to students of that era. At a time of transition within the field of psychology, the stimulating heterogeneity of faculty and students, the availability of multidisciplinary training opportunities in unique settings, and the cultural stimulation of the Southwest itself combined to provide a special training environment that encouraged diversity, innovation, and creativity as students molted into their professional roles. The author concludes that he and his fellow students continue to profit from that special experience.
