The authors C.R. Snyder and T.R. Elliott in their article, “Twenty‐First Century Graduate Education in Clinical Psychology: A Four Level Matrix Model” (this issue), reflect on the nature of training needed for optimal clinical psychologists, and offer suggestions for such training within a matrix model. Their position is largely consistent with current American Psychological Association preferences and general training guidelines, and has historical precedence. Indeed, the ideas, though not new or radical, are very sound. Amen, the wheel remains round. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Psychol.
