Creating a School, Life and Work Balance

If you are like many students nowadays, you may have the responsibility of keeping up your grades while maintaining a full-time job or at least a part-time job. Many of you have households to keep running smoothly and children and families to take care of, in addition to the demands of your job and school. These are all priorities in life; however, how do you deal with each responsibility when priorities collide? This seminar will provide you with basic tips on how to better manage school, work and life in general. It is up to you to take this information and focus on making positive changes. During this session, participants can expect to: identify the causes of school/work/life stress; learn to prioritize your roles and responsibilities; and learn tips and techniques to help better create balance in your life.

Civility on Campus

This wellness seminar is about creating an environment of mutual respect. We'll start with the words Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. These inspiring words will provide the ideal to move toward as we consider how to contribute to an environment of mutual respect, understanding why civility is important, identifying what makes a behavior perceived as civil or uncivil, and learning ways to create an environment of respect.
