The design of this session is to create a peaceful and safe space for our graduate and professional student and postdoc community to come together and engage about the impact the US Election process is having on us as an individual and in our community. 

With the magnitude of uncertainty right now, we are using this as an opportunity to check-in and support mental health and well-being.  Our goals are to share and understand the personal and community impact and discuss strategies that support our mental health. All perspectives welcome; we will not be debating about politics, or specific candidates.  International scholars are welcomed to attend.  Attend any or all sessions.

Sessions are held via zoom: 

• Wednesday, November 4 from 4:00 – 5:00 pm (EDT)
• Thursday, November 5 from 10:00 – 11:00 am (EDT)
• Friday, November 6 from 12:00 – 1:00 pm (EDT)

Facilitators are from the following offices:  Graduate School, Office of Postdoctoral Studies, Dean of Students, Big Red Barn Graduate and Professional Student Center, Career Services and EARS (Empathy, Assistance and Referral Service)
