You will receive a form to indicate which presentations you would like to attend with your advisory. Please fill it out. Bioethics scholars have been hard at work, and they are very excited to present their projects to the community. Please come!
Community Service Committee:
Adithi and Jenna created a document with a list of ways to give back and opportunities do service remotely! The list will include organizations that support a variety of causes, some of which address current local issues (e.g. economic hardships faced by many people as a result of the pandemic). Though you are encouraged to donate to the organizations, the list will also include activities that you can do at home to support the organizations and causes while social distancing.
Ms. Justice:
Ms. Justice is happy to be a resource while we are remote-learning. Please email her to set up times to chat, to ask questions, etc.
Additionally, Ms. Justice has a few tips regarding inclusion during this time:
Be aware of your language. "Physically distances; socially connect."
Be an ally or an upstander.
Use the appropriate name when discussing the disease (COVID-19) or the virus (the Coronavirus).
Affirm others.
Share financially.
Be kind and patient to yourself, your family, and others.
Set a personal goal.
Take care of yourself.
