E257: Virginia (Ginger) Wickline: Insights, inspirations, purpose, and power
In this episode Eric interviews Virginia (Ginger) Wickline from Georgia Southern University in Savannah, GA. Ginger begins with the origin of her name and her career path from a visiting position at the College of Wooster to a decade at Miami University of Ohio and then Georgia Southern in 2018, where she earned tenure again. She describes supportive teacher-parents, being a high-achieving multi-activity student, and switching from English to psychology at Anderson University, including service trips abroad that shaped her diversity interests. Trained in Emory’s clinical psychology track, she worked at Grady Hospital under Nadine Kaslow and studied with Scott Lilienfeld. Ginger discusses teaching stats/methods, service learning, study abroad, careers, ethics, personality, and diversity, as well as her varied scholarship (syllabi impressions, intercultural competence, adjustment, nonverbal communication). She highlights the STP-hosted Online Career Exploration Resource 2 (2025), updating Drew Appleby’s 300+ psychology career list into a searchable website. Link to online resource: [Note.
