Weekly Meditative Pause (Zoom) 
Every Tuesday 
1:00-1:30pm over zoom; https://slcc-edu.zoom.us/j/85264105820?pwd=Qm01TTVrbjJUWU1sZ1lnNGY2OG1yZz09 
Join SLCC faculty Heidi O’Donoghue and Andrea Malouf each Tuesday afternoon from 1-1:30 p.m. for Meditative Pause for People in Higher Education. Each week we will take a break from doing and problem-solving to come together for ½ hour sessions to connect, relax and center via zoom. We’ll explore breathing and relaxation techniques, as well as best practices for mindful communication and well-being. Each session will include a very brief introduction to the weekly topic, a guided meditation and then a short group reflection. No registration required. 

Inclusive Teaching Workshop: Syllabus Tune-up (FC70) 
Wed, April 13, 2022 
2:30 – 4:00PM 
TB 225D-A  
While the syllabus is a familiar feature in an academic course, we often overlook strategies to design a syllabus that is inclusive. Whether you are an experienced or new faculty member, participants will have the opportunity to develop or assess a syllabus for a range of components such as tone, policies, statements, and transparency. By creating a clear and welcoming syllabus, we can more readily engage students in our courses. If possible, please bring a syllabus with you.
