Coffee and Connections, Hybrid for Spring 2022

  "Find a peer group of women to provide professional support" suggest the authors of Ten simple rules for women principal investigators during a pandemic.  Research has shown that women generally benefit from networking and group mentoring.  Further, women's stress can be moderated by social supports.  It's also not a surprise that short breaks help individuals regroup and look at challenges through a refreshed lens.  So, have a snack or bring your lunch on 2nd Wednesdays, 1-2pm.  Sessions are hosted by the ESF Women's Caucus and are open to employees, students, and alumnae.

Coffee Breaks are hybrid this semester, with the kettle on in 408 Baker.  For concurrent zoom connection information (link or call-in number), please register. 

You can ask questions or share resources anytime by subscribing to:

·    ESFWomen is configured as a discussion forum, but is used most frequently to share event reminders and registration links! 

·    FamilyResources.  Child- and elder-care impact a number of students and employees regardless of gender/gender identity  By spinning off those discussions, we hope to make them more accessible to parents and other caregivers who need them (ATM or for the future), unclutter the inboxes of those who don’t, and underscore “balancing work and family” as universal workplace concerns.
