This thread has been very informative and it stimulated me to do some research of my own. I found this on the Princeston Review site.

=======================
Fun Facts

Sigmund Freud barely escaped persecution
by the Nazis in his native Austria, fleeing to England just a few days before the Gestapo entered his home.

Famous people who majored in Psychology
Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, William James, and Jacques Lacan.
=======================

I was especially amused by the idea that barely escaping the Gestapo was a fun fact. Also, I hadn't realized that Freud majored in Psychology. I had been telling my students that he wasn't really a psychologist and that we didn't have to claim him.
