Student Life Conference Spotlights View Other Sessions

Join us to hear from other colleagues who attended a conference, training, workshop, or institute this past year and want to share what they learned. Whether it is new skills, tools, or research, we hope to unpack all of the information we're bringing back to campus from our various development opportunities. These will be hosted in rounds of 45 minute breakout sessions, with a break from 12pm-1pm for attendees to grab lunch on your own.

This program is free for all Student Life Staff, and a $15 charge for non Student Life attendees.

This is not a formal conference event, but you can think of it more as a "Teachback" opportunity! Afterward for Student Life Staff, spend time mingling with colleagues at the Annual Student Life Celebration, 3pm-5pm in the Michigan Union.



Climate Wayfinding: Gaining Clarity, Courage, and Community for Our Climate Journeys

Pond Room, Michigan Union
Clara Gamalski

Many students are looking at the climate crisis with distress and grappling with the question “what can I do?” So are many higher education professionals. Climate Wayfinding is a proven program for holding that question well and gaining clarity, courage, and community for our climate journeys. Clara was recently trained by Dr. Katharine Wilkinson of The All We Can Save Project (AWCSP) in delivering this training for students and staff alike. Learn more AWCSP's approach, which invites participants to (1) look inward at their climate emotions, values, and “superpowers” (2) look outward at climate solutions, accelerators, and community in UM's unique context and (3) look forward to create a personalized “climate compass” and plan.
