The University of Nebraska’s #NCLUDE program is offering 16 small learning groups for the spring semester. Registration is open through Jan. 13.
The #NCLUDE small learning groups offer opportunities to talk candidly over the course of a semester, addressing inclusive excellence as a part of everyday actions. These small groups are intended to develop relationships in concentrated areas of introspection to help students, faculty, staff, alumni, and the larger community understand and embrace the opportunities to create a greater sense of community and belonging.
The range of topics include building resilient mental health, being an effective introverted leader, invisible illnesses and disability awareness, and being a mindful mentor. The spring slate of #NCLUDE small groups are led by campus leaders, faculty, staff and students from offices including members of the Office of the Executive Vice Chancellor, the Center for Transformative Teaching, and Counseling and Psychological Services.
Learning group participants commit to meeting six times over the semester with the same small group of six to 12 people. Participants will have designated learning materials to prepare for each meeting, and the discussions will focus on applying those materials through self-reflection and everyday action.
Registration closes Jan. 13. Priority will be given to those who register early. Additional information, including group descriptions, meeting times and how to register here.
