Student Life Research recently completed its Unit-based Climate Study, a project intended to hear staff stories and opinions about working
in Student Life and to better understand what makes staff feel (or not feel)
supported, welcomed, heard, and included. The study focused on actionable
items such as the resources and support needed to do our best work, how
workload and resources are distributed, and the ways staff have a voice or want
to have a voice in their units and in Student Life.

This session is an opportunity for any Student Life staff member to hear about what we discovered through the study, learn what some Student Life staff are already doing to take action based on the findings, and ask questions and offer additional suggestions for ways we can use these findings to improve our climate throughout the Division of Student Life.
Participants:
Wendy Lawrence, Assistant Director of Student Life Research, lead researcher and presenter
Rob Abid, Talent Management Lead, panelist
Anita Bohn, Organizational Development Lead, panelist
Holly Rodden, Student Life Staff Culture and Development Lead, panelist
Will Sherry, Special Advisor to VPSL and Director of Strategic Initiatives, panelist
Janel Sutkus, Director of Student Life Research, moderator
Student Life staff from all units and welcome to attend. This session is not open to people outside of the Division of Student Life.

First-Year Relationship and Sexuality Talk (FYRST) is a required, in-person, and peer-facilitated workshop that came directly from feedback and listening sessions with current University of Michigan students. Our goal is to create an accessible, supportive space for student-driven conversations where all identities and experiences are welcomed and in which students can build skills and tools around identifying goals and values and then communicate effectively about those. Workshops will be offered at multiple locations and times throughout the fall semester, so please sign up for the workshop that works for you!!
First-Year Relationship Sexuality Talk (FYRST) FAQ:

“How many workshops do I have to sign up for?”

You only need to sign up for 1 workshop. Attending 1 workshop will fulfill the requirement for the training.

“I see that there is more than one session, does it matter which one I sign up for?”

It generally does not matter which workshop you sign up for. There will be a few that are designated for specific groups such as transfer students or for students looking for accommodations. If you do not fit these groups please try to save these workshops for those that do and you are free to choose among any of the other workshops.

“Is this workshop required?”

This workshop is required for all transfer and first-year students at the University of Michigan.

“I’ve experienced harm around relationships or sexual experiences in the past and I am worried that attending this workshop may be harmful for me.”

Our team is aware that students who are coming into the university that have experienced harm in the past. Our workshop is specifically designed to respect and validate the experiences of survivors and has been carefully constructed to avoid any specific descriptions of violence and focus instead on themes of empowerment, communication, and boundary setting. However, if you still have concerns about programming and would like to request alternative programming, please feel free to reach out at SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.

“What if I struggle to learn in a presentation setting? I’m an active learner.”

Our workshop is built to meet a variety of learning styles, including time for self-reflection, small group sharing, and resources to take with you to work through on your own time! This workshop is meant to be interactive and inclusive.

“Can I request accommodations?”

We considered accessibility in creating this workshop and selecting the locations in which the workshops are help. However, we recognize many places at the University are inaccessible and we've set an * next to workshops that are on the first floor and lack stairs. These workshops also will have a presentation (other workshops we do not) and are a good fit for those who might need a large font. Please sign up for those if you feel that accommodations would assist you and reach out to SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu if you are concerned or have questions.

“I missed my workshop, what should I do ?”

Our team tracks attendance at each workshop by having participants swipe in with their MCard. If you are not able to attend the workshop you signed up for, our team will continue to send reminder emails until you have completed a workshop. In this case, please sign up for another workshop as soon as you can as the workshop is required and may fill up especially near the end of the semester. No need to contact SAPAC unless you are not able to reschedule.

“I have had gender-based violence training before, can I get this requirement waived?”

As this workshop was designed with University of Michigan student feedback in mind, our workshop is unique to the UM community. Our curriculum focuses on individualized reflection and because of its interactive nature, each workshop will be unique to the people attending. Although we are excited you already have familiarity with the subject, this workshop is required for every first year and transfer student.

“I’m a commuter/non-traditional student, do I still have to attend?"

Yes, this workshop is required for every first-year and transfer student - not only do we want every student to benefit from having this time to connect with peers, but we also want to make sure your peers benefit from what you bring to our community. If you have any concerns or questions about being able to participate, please contact SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.

“I still have questions! Who should I contact?"

Please contact us at SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu or call our office at (734) 764-7771.

This interactive workshop, led by U-M School of Music, Theatre, and Dance lecturer Kara Roseborough, blends creative writing and choreography to foster self-expression, celebrate individual and collective identities, and explore the intersections of movement and text. Through structured prompts and collaborative exercises, participants will craft identity-based written and choreographic material, encouraging a deeper understanding of themselves and others. Rooted in principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion, this workshop creates a space for participants to explore personal identity, cultural narratives, and shared experiences. Activities emphasize spatial awareness, improvisational storytelling, and collaborative creation, aiming to amplify diverse voices and foster empathy through the arts. After each prompt, the group will engage in a 10-minute sharing session, offering a platform for participants to present their creations, discuss their processes, and receive feedback. These reflective moments encourage collaboration, celebrate individuality, and demonstrate the power of integrating movement and writing to promote connection and understanding. This workshop is open to anyone curious about using the arts as a tool for fostering inclusivity and exploring identity. Be prepared to move and share!
