What are you most excited about for the Fall 2024 semester?
I am most excited to see the implementation of the new mandatory consent, healthy relationship, and Title IX content being incorporated into UNV 101 in partnership with Office of Sexual and Interpersonal Wellness (OSIW) and Title IX.
Are there ways that students, staff, and faculty can get involved with OSIW on the NYC Campus?
The best way for the Pace Community to get involved with OSIW on the NYC Campus is by scheduling a workshop, partnering with us on an event, or reaching out directly for individual support and resources.
What is one piece of advice you'd like to offer as the semester begins?
One piece of advice I would give is that as you all enter this new semester, focus on cultivating relationships that are based on mutual respect, trust, and clear communication. Recognize the signs of healthy and unhealthy dynamics in relationships, and donÌÇÐÄvlog¶ÌÊÓƵ™t hesitate to seek help from OSIW and other on-campus supports if something feels off. Remember, your time at college is not just about academics; it's about personal growth, building connections, and learning how to thrive in a community. Take full advantage of the resources and support available to you!
Are there upcoming OSIW events and programs?
Stay tuned for upcoming events in October for Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and I also hope to see many of you in October during your UNV 101 workshops!
