The Bark: News and Events for Students
Past Events
The Let Out
The Let Out is a space which centers on the BIPOC experience at college and how mental health plays a part in this experience. All are welcome to participate in this space through listening and supporting each other. It is facilitated by one of our on-campus mental health counselors. The counselor is there to guide discussions and answer questions about mental health challenges while offering ways to cope while at college.
So, if you’re needing a space to decompress, learn new skills, or talk it out, this is the perfect space to do so. We meet every 1st and 3rd Wednesday from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm, in Lower Odell, Rm 008

Narrative Medicine Skills Training introduces the narrative medicine principles of attention, representation, and affiliation and develops participant skills of listening and witnessing. We will reflect on how listening and witnessing can be applied to stories of health, illness and healing in diverse healthcare settings to improve care and support healing.
Training is open to students, health professionals, faculty, staff and community members– anyone curious about the practice of narrative medicine.
