Handwritten notes + A little candy = A whole lot of encouragement this hearts' day ❤️

​Shoutout to the Peer Facilitators of the College of Technologies for today’s lovely surprise! They’ve been busy sharing handwritten messages of hope and strength with the rest of the university.

​It’s wonderful to see our COT students leading with heart and making an impact in their own unique way. Proud to be part of this community!

Hazing isn’t “tradition.” It’s abuse.
Let’s build safe, supportive, and respectful communities together.

Had a bit of a heart-to-heart with the Peer Facilitator fam today. We did a 'Pulse Check' basically just sitting down to figure out what’s actually taking up space in our heads this week.
​It was a good reminder that before we try to help anyone else, we have to check in on ourselves first. Between the mid-term stress and just life in general, everyone’s carrying a lot.

​We also talked about the 'vibe' on campus lately. We tried to scan the college’s pulse to see where people are struggling and how we, as a support group, can actually show up for you guys.

We’re brainstorming some stuff to help bridge those gaps, so keep an eye out!

Our Peer Facilitators spend so much time supporting others, but who supports the supporters? Today, we will gather for our Monthly Huddle and kick things off with a Pulse Check Activity. See you later Peer Facisssss.... 😊

The words we use often dictate our actions. For today's activity the goal isn't "toxic positivity" (pretending everything is perfect), but rather accuracy and kindness to your self.

Thanks PF Marvin for facilitating 🙂
