We are reaching out with an invitation to attend GSEE’s Autumn Quarter Power Hour: Resilience in Changing Times. Please join the Office of Graduate Student Equity & Excellence (GSEE) for our first Power Hour of the academic year at the UW Seattle Communications Building (CMU), Room 126, on Wednesday, November 6, from 2:00 – 3:30 pm PT!GSEE Power Hours are designed with introspective and professional growth in mind. Graduate students impacted by racism and its intersections are invited to participate in interactive discussions surrounding topics that are unique to their academic and professional journeys.
We are grateful to be holding space with our colleagues, Dr. Charisse Williams, Assistant Director and Counseling Psychologist at UW Counseling Center, and Sasha Duttchoudhury, MSW, LSWAIC, and Program Manager at the UW Resilience Lab. Together our facilitators will be leading graduate students through exercises and discussions that will invite them to consider what it’s like to practice resilience in changing times. As we engage with the pressures and uncertainties of course loads, finding community, and everyday life in the ever-changing times that we live in, we can feel exhausted and defeated. GSEE wants to provide a space for graduate students to be in community, rest, and recenter. To RSVP for “Resilience in Changing Times” visit this webpage.
As always, we wish you well and hope to see you at our programming this quarter.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend,
The GSEE Team
