Marguerite Devereux

My name is Meg Devereux, and I'm a psychology instructor at Cleveland Community College in Shelby, North Carolina. My love of psychology was first sparked when I took an AP Psychology class in my senior year of high school, which led to an undergraduate major in biopsychology at Spring Hill College in Mobile, AL. I then went on to complete two master's degrees, the first in neuroscience from Tulane in New Orleans, and the other in behavioral neuroscience from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. I am originally from Florida, where I got my start as a teacher at Walt Disney World with the Youth Education Series. The YES program made me passionate about using hands-on activities and real world application in my teaching methods. I was then able to teach general psychology and intro stats at a small high school in St. Augustine, Florida, before moving to North Carolina and making the transition to teaching at the community college level. In my free time you'll probably find me hunched over a sewing machine or dressing up as comic book characters as I volunteer with both Costumers with a Cause and the Rebel Legion to bring costumed characters to hospitals and charity events. I also love reading and baking sweet treats!

I completed my undergraduate work at Elmira College in biology and psychology. I then went to UNC-Charlotte to do a MS in genetics. After completion, I worked at ECU Brody School of Medicine doing research in the Allergy/Immunology department. After a few years, it became obvious to me that I needed human interaction. I enrolled in the clinical psychology program at ECU and obtained my MA. I hold a license in NC to practice psychology, which I have done privately since 2001. I began teaching part time at Pitt Community College in 1998. I have been an adjunct at ECU since 2013, where I teach abnormal and developmental psychology. In 2016 I took a full time position at PCC in the social science department as a psychology faculty member. I teach general, abnormal and developmental psychology. I take advantage of the numerous professional development offered on and off campus which helps to broaden my area of expertise and the resources I can share with my students. I recently have had my PSY281 (abnormal psychology class) QM certified. I am one of 3 co-advisors to the Gender Sexuality Alliance student club. NCCCSPA is a wonderful organization to collaborate within and outside of my field with like-minded people who share a passion for teaching.

I was born and raised in southwest Ohio. I received my A.A. with an emphasis in psychology from Sinclair Community College in Dayton, Ohio. I then transferred, like many of our students, to Wright State University in Dayton where I earned a B.S. in psychology. I have a great passion for both sports and psychology, so I decided to go to a Ph.D. Counseling program at the University of North Texas in Denton, Texas. I had an emphasis in sport psychology alongside my general training as a counselor. I did not finish with a Ph.D. Rather, I left UNT with an M.S. in Psychology. I have been teaching at Coastal Carolina Community College for thirteen years now. I am married to my wife Shelley with a 5-year-old son Evander and a 2-year-old daughter Amelia.
