[SADivision 0242] New Process for E-mail and Event Requests via Hobsons
by Jennifer Jarvis 29 Nov '16

29 Nov '16

Sharing, Hello, I hope you all had a good holiday. I'm writing to inform you that beginning, Monday, December 5th, there will be a new process for requesting e-mails and event notifications to students via Hobsons. Due to the high volume of requests, the challenge of keeping track of the requests via standard e-mail and the inability of other staff to receive requests in my absence, all requests should now be made through an online request form (link below). You will need to login with your QC username and password. The forms are very similar to the MS Word templates you have already been using. If you are simply sending out an e-mail (even if it is regarding an event), select "e-mail request". If you would like an event to be advertised and have the students sign up for the event via Hobsons, select "event request". Please be mindful that e-mail requests should be made a minimum of five days in advance of when you would like the e-mail sent and event requests a minimum of ten days in advance. The system will not allow submissions that fall outside of these parameters. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Renae Wooten Director of Enrollment Services Division of Enrollment & Student Retention Queens College 65-30 Kissena Boulevard Kiely Hall, Room 183A Queens, NY 11367 (718) 997-3012 (718) 570-0481 (fax) http://www.qc.cuny.edu/about/administration/enrollmentandstudentretention/e…

Event now & later today! [http://files.constantcontact.com/ae0ca15b201/97236532-2fe2-49af-9b7e-5a0f8d…] Conversations for Engagement Certificate The Conversations for Engagement Certificate is an opportunity for those who may not be able to commit to our year long-Dialogue Fellowship which meets every week, or, are not otherwise eligible to apply for the Fellowship. Completing the certificate increases your skills in navigating difficult conversations, increases understanding of existing bias, and exposes participants to issues of importance in current events. Everyone, students, staff, faculty, and community members alike are welcome to participate in CERRU workshops and dialogues. Eligibility for the Conversations for Engagement Certificate is based upon meeting all of the requirements listed below, a 2-page final exit paper, and short discussion with a CERRU staff member to gauge the effect of participating in the certificate program. We have heard alumni from our program speak about the ways in which their work with CERRU has benefited them in their careers. Additionally, during job and internship interviews, our organizational affiliation has stood out on alumni resumes. The Conversations for Engagement Certificate offers the opportunity to gain some of the skills practiced in the Dialogue Fellowship and recognition of being part of the CERRU alumni network. Participants interested in completing the certificate must attend the following within an academic year. 1. Crucial Conversations workshop (offered every semester) 2. Interrogating Bias workshop (offered every semester) 3. Two elective workshops (there will be two elective workshops offered each semester for a total of four) 4. Two dialogues (there will be two dialogues offered each semester for a total of four) Additionally, they must complete a two-page writing assignment for which the prompt is provided in the spring. VOTE FOR NEXT SEMESTER WORKSHOPS!<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001uVHXmmezZioUxIfVSDr56SRrt5VNW_GqIu02HxSijtIZ…> Fall 2016 Workshop Schedule Monday, September 6th, 2016 6-8pm Crucial Conversations Workshop <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001uVHXmmezZioUxIfVSDr56SRrt5VNW_GqIu02HxSijtIZ…> Have you ever been scared to have an important conversation with someone you cared about? Maybe it was a co-worker, family member, or highly trusted friend. Maybe you knew this would be an emotional topic and that you would disagree. The CERRU Crucial Conversations training will give you a toolkit for transforming these important and difficult interactions. Monday, October 24th, 2016, 12:15-1:30pm Cultural Appropriation: Exploration of Popular Culture and Power <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001uVHXmmezZioUxIfVSDr56SRrt5VNW_GqIu02HxSijtIZ…> Curious what the Washington Redskins, Halloween goers, and Marc Jacobs have in common? Join us for a one-hour interactive lecture where we will introduce cultural appropriation, it's current iteration in American popular culture and how it relates to you. Wednesday, November 9th, 12:15-1:30pm, or 5:30-8:30pm Understanding the Importance of the Individual in Social Justice and Racial Equity Actions with Cathy Royal This workshop will explore the importance of individual action for advancing racial equity and social justice. The session will examine language, use of self, and awareness for behavior change. It will explore what it means to understand the weight and privilege of social identities. Options for action will also be shared as part of the work and discussion. NOTE: This will be an interactive and experiential workshop; participants will have the option to share insights about identity, power, and privilege across identity and power boundaries. You can attend either session or both. Monday, November 21st, 2016, 12:15-1:30pm Interrogating Bias This workshop provides attendees with tools to recognize bias and interrogate bias in the workplace. In 2014, The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) found that 83% of hate crimes are racial, religious, or relating to sexual orientation, this suggests an increasing tension between minority and majority populations. The workshop seeks to bridge some of the tension by introducing stakeholders to implicit and explicit bias at the micro and macro level. In addition, the workshop provides a brief introduction on how to create safe and inclusive space for all. Upcoming Dialogue Wednesday, November 16th, 2016, 12:15-1:30pm Student-Facilitated Dialogue- S.E.X.I.S.M: Does sexism affect us all? If so, how? Join us for a riveting dialogue about how we as individuals explore sexism in our culture, ethnicities, and our faith or atheistic traditions.
