Appreciate the diversity among us

51:53
Being apart together

51:54
Opportunity to meet and recognize a few faces

51:56
allows us all to have a relatable base to start from across departments and backgrounds.

51:56
to break the ice, engage with each other, and meet “face to face” to have other contacts on campus

51:57
It was a good way to get everyone involved and participating. And was a good way to meet others in the group.

52:02
Create community

52:02
A reminder that we're a community even if it doesn't feel like it right now

52:05
Its important to share and build community. Especially in the time of COVID-19.

52:06
Glad to meet some folks- feeling a little isolated in everyday life.

good morning!

01:49:29
The support that EMU has to the surrounding community, including students of different levels of education and their families.

01:49:53
Wonderful support system. Colleagues have been wonderful helping me as a new employee learn the difference systems to get the job done. AMAZING!

01:54:14
Such a great video!!!!!

01:55:52
inclusion and understanding

01:55:52
My poster in the movie was to Collaborate. The FDC is always open to collaborating with you on how to make a difference!

01:55:58
Be welcoming and kind to all.

01:56:07
Challenge the whiteness, gender, and class traditions of education in my discipline

01:56:09
Strive for excellence

01:56:12
Make sure our students feel supported and safe!

01:56:17
Continuing to work to be welcoming and benefit the great community

01:56:20
Support and listen

01:56:20
By ensuring that my students understood the need for excellence in their clinical research professions and how that excellence impacts human lives.

01:56:24
Focusing on student-centered learning by requesting student feedback on programs and services

01:56:28
Welcome and support to our communities.

01:56:28
Creating inclusive curricula that represent scholarship from people of color and acknowledge the rampant racism in our society.

01:56:30
I can respect my students and take the responsibility to create programs that are beneficial to them but also to their family in order to promote inclusion and independence

01:56:38
I can make sure that I strive to listen and be an active part of the EMU community.

01:56:43
By “preparing students with relevant skills and real world awareness” I can help students view themselves as agents of change.

01:56:55
Make sure students are treated with respect and inclusiveness at CAPS

01:57:05
I can practice what I preach. I encourage future teachers to be inclusive in their practices, respecting the value each individual student brings to a classroom. I can model this behavior in my own classroom.

01:57:10
Myself and the other administrators in the Honors College released a statement a few months ago committing to our students that we will use our Star Lectures Series to keep the conversation going!

01:57:14
Inclusiveness with students and the student groups!

01:57:16
Encourage students to practice excellence and make it a habit in and out of the gym. Always do your best in every exercise

01:57:19
1. Recognize that I am part of a deeply inequitable system. 2. Dedicate to create spaces for growth and listening for all. 3. Increase the enrollment and success of Black and Brown education students.

01:57:23
As a student, then freelancer now staff member I have watched EMU evolve and adapt to amazing and wonderful things. Now being a part of the family in an official capacity, I want to keep moving the university forward, never backward.

01:57:26
Support, listen and respond to EMU students and co-workers

01:57:42
I will be respectful of students during this difficult and uncertain times.

01:57:51
support the community in meeting their goals, educational as well as personal. take the time to truly hear.

01:57:52
Through instruction, help change the narrative among, and bring awareness to, underserved and underprivileged communities

01:58:09
Being thoughtful and seeking to understand another's view point.

01:58:13
We can share the transcript of this chat.

01:59:49
Integrity to me is embodied in honest communication as well as acting responsibly. In my role I will approach colleagues and students with respect and being open to sharing my experiences as well as hearing others experiences, and being humble enough to ask others for guidance based on their experience, to enrich the campus community and grow as individuals.

01:59:58
Try to change a life, one meeting at a time.

02:00:18
Center Black voices in classes (friendly reminder to cite Black women in our syllabi!); prepare students with the tools and skillsets to meaningfully engage in their communities; make classwork relevant to our current political context; practice accountability and the values we seek to create in our classrooms

02:00:23
Engage in ongoing critical reflection (individually and and as an institution) to ensure that we are living up to our words and values.

02:28:55
Can we get a copy of these slides?

02:29:31
Yes. We will send out the slides to all of you!

02:29:38

02:47:41
World of Rocks ROCKS!

02:47:46
I love going to World of Rocks!

02:47:50
i love world of rocks

02:48:37
Evanstar's Chalice is owned by a former EMU Full-Time Lecturer (next to World of Rocks).

02:48:57
Encuentro Latino has the best brunch!

02:49:52
I LOVE evanstar's chalice

02:50:00

02:51:38
Now I'm hungry. Thanks

02:52:07
Thank you Ashleigh and Student Panelists!!!

02:52:10
Welcome to Eastern everyone!!!! <3

02:52:26
Thank you for having us, see you on campus!

02:53:45
hr_benefits@emich.edu

03:01:12
Can we enroll today?

03:04:53
If we are already enrolled but changing employment category (Full-time lecturer to assistant professor) do we need to make any changes to our benefits or it stays as is?

03:06:46
Most benefits stay the same and transfer over. Once I process your change, I'll connect with you if there is anything you need to do.

03:07:13
Thanks Catherine

03:07:31
When is open enrollment?

03:08:17
Is there a Domestic Partner Affidavit for someone with a significant other but not married?

03:10:56
I am FA and she doesn't have current coverage

03:15:28
Is this the same if we don't have a 100% appointment?

03:17:21
The match applies only to the Employee Classifications listed. If you are one of the E-classes, you can receive the match. If you are a LL (part time Lecturer) or an E-class that is not listed, there is no match, but you can contribute.

03:18:17
So, a PE with an 88.7% appointment would still receive the match?

03:20:20
Yes, it's based on your salary.

03:20:33
Ok, great! Thank you!

04:54:32
My wife made some new chili that has maple syrup in it. Tasty.

04:54:32
I am also a little worried about grading. At my previous institution there was a great variety in terms of faculty expectations for grades, and it led to students being upset and confused because work they submitted in one course was acceptable, while it was unacceptable in others.

04:55:03
If a student stops participating in an online course midway and is not responding to emails/canvas notifications, what are some options to reach out to them?

04:55:04
Black bean veggie burger!!!!

05:22:13
When will we have access to our Canvas courses? Is this something that is automatically published? Or do we need to request them?

05:22:59
Sounds good

05:44:41
Good point Amanda!

05:45:00
Is there anyway to connect with students prior to the start of class (e.g. send email) through canvas?

05:47:50
Where is the best place to get information on advanced needs with canvas

05:48:44
Peggy, will we also be discussing Starfish in the next session?

05:49:05

05:51:58
I found you have to publish before you can send messages, maybe that's not true

05:52:10
Canvas works pretty intuitively

06:16:16
lol

Are there non-police alternatives to DPS for crisis situations?

06:44:26
Peter asked about non-police alternatives to DPS for crisis: For sexual misconduct - Title IX Office: https://www.emich.edu/title-nine/

06:44:53
Fred - A few additional points I would share regarding discussions about disability … 1) if a student does disclose a disability with you, please do not share that information with other students and/or individuals who do not have a "need to know" and 2) if a student attempts to have a discussion with you regarding disabilities in a place or space where others are present, I would recommend pausing the conversation and stating that the environment may not be the best to have the conversation and it would be better to have it in a place were it is more private

06:47:10
CAPS - Counseling and Psychological Services: https://www.emich.edu/caps/

06:52:42
I’ve found co-created Class/Community Agreements to be an effective way of setting standards and accountability for challenging discussions.
