Celebrate AP Psychology with an "Electric T-Shirt"
With all the thunder and lightning lately & all spring long... why not a lightning brain shirt?
The T-Shirts will be 12 bucks if we can get 15 people to purchase them. That's not too many, is it? If only 14 buy a shirt... then they won't make it and it will not be charged to you. So try to spread the word if you like the design and you want one.
Let me know what you think.
