  • 1.  Faculty and Staff Support Groups

    Posted Feb 10, 2025 18:42

    Are any campuses creating informal support groups for faculty and staff right now? I don't think my campus is alone in so many of us are completely overwhelmed right now by the state of this world. The fear, anxiety, and burnout are at an unprecedented level. Our program wants to be part of creating something where we can support one another. At my sister's campus, a provost died of a heart attack yesterday evening. This is serious.

    Hi Wendy,

     

    Yes, we are holding space for students, faculty and practicum supervisors.  So far we have had 2 virtual open calls for people to come together and meet.  We do plan to continue doing this for as long as we need.  We also have begin weekly lunch meetings for faculty and staff to get together and support each other. 

     

    The other thing we are doing is putting together a resource space in our building.  We are trying to make it informative and inviting in hopes people will not only come to get information but also come to connect and support each other.

     

    Thanks,
