Legacy of Val Day of Service: The Fuller Center

Student Activities

Join the Christensen Office of Service and Sustainability as we lend a hand at the Fuller Center for Housing's thrift store. This organization's thrift store specializes in building materials-- think like a mash up of Home Depot and Goodwill. We will be sorting donations and tidying the store, making the products look great so that customers can find what they're looking for. Proceeds from the thrift store go to fund critical home repairs for Cache Valley community members with low incomes. The thrift store also diverts usable materials from the landfill! We plan to be indoors, but there's a chance that some tasks will take place outside, so dress for the weather. Close-toed shoes are a good option, since donations can be sharp or heavy. Register through the AggiePulse link provided.

A Bolder Way Forward: Updates and Next Steps

Panel Discussion/Presentation

National and statewide studies continue to show that women and girls in Utah are not thriving in critical areas. Although the needle has moved slightly in a few areas, with its current trajectory it will take three or four decades to make notable progress. A BWF was launched in June 2023 to shake things up in Utah and make critical changes that are needed much faster. The primary aim of BWF is to help more Utah women, girls, and their families thrive. Utah women and girls thrive when all aspects of their safety, security, health, and wellbeing are met, allowing them to explore and pursue educational, professional, civic, leadership, and other opportunities according to their interests, and to feel abundant levels of support and a sense of belonging as they do so. Utah is struggling significantly in many of these areas, and that is simply unacceptable! Join Dr. Susan Madsen and others involved in the movement to learn about the progress that has been made, its current state, what is planned for the remainder of Year 2, and how to get involved in this meaningful work. When we lift Utah girls and women, we lift all Utahns!

LAEP Speaker Series: Siqi Zhu, Planning as Strategic Design

Lecture/Readings

About the Lecture What is planning's relationship to design? In this lecture, I will argue for the necessity and efficacy of urban planning as a form of "strategic design", moving past traditional design's focus on discrete solutions -- be it a building or a landscape -- but borrowing traditional design's principles and methods to tackle systemic challenges like inequality, unaffordable housing, and climate change. Speaker Bio Siqi is an urban planner, technologist, and strategic designer who seamlessly integrates cities and technologies as dual focal points in his practice. With a strategic design mindset, he applies a creative combination of place-, community-, and technology-based solutions to complex, systemic urban challenges, such as climate change, infrastructural renewal, equitable development, and technological disruptions.

Communitas Lecture Series: Vance Byrd

Lecture/Readings

Vance Byrd is a scholar of late-eighteenth- and nineteenth-century German literature who investigates how literary and print culture intersect with the history of visual media. He will be speaking about his current book project, Listening to Panoramas, which looks beyond statues to discover how panoramic forms played a pivotal role in transatlantic visual and sonic cultures of commemoration. Panoramas gave audiences around the world the opportunity to immerse themselves in stories about natural and urban landscapes as well as bloody battle scenes depicted on larger-than-life circular paintings. This book proposes that the emotions produced by the sonic and visual effects at panorama shows determine how the past is remembered and politicized. Furthermore, it investigates how Black artists have turned to the panoramic form to resist narratives about defeat and victory in the American Civil War and to reinscribe the history of the Black freedom struggles onto the medium.

The Communitas Lecture Series is a set of visiting artists, scholars, and design series. This series is free and open to the public!

Five Research-Based Practices that Promote Engagement

Workshop/Training | Sparkshops

We know students bring more than their brains to class. Research has shown that increased feelings of belonging, autonomy, and competence can increase engagement and improve learning outcomes. Orienting your material in a way that is personally relevant to your students and having an awareness of social comparison are also impactful to students’ learning experiences. This Sparkshop will share how you can implement these ideas into your instructional practices, classroom environment, and the behind-the-scenes administrative work you do to keep a course running. As with all Sparkshops, there will be opportunities for exploring and learning from one another.

CCE Faculty & Community Speed Networking

Social/Networking

Looking for a community partner for your Community-Engaged Learning (CEL) course? Are you interested in collaborating with local organizations to make a real impact in our community? Or perhaps you’re a community leader looking to partner with faculty on a meaningful project? This event will provide an opportunity for local community organizations to connect with USU faculty who share your interests and goals. We are accepting 10 community partners and 10 faculty members to participate. Please note we will do our best to align areas of interest; however, there will likely be faculty and community partners with a range of interests, experience and expertise. Through brief (three-minute) one-on-one conversations, you’ll have the chance to pitch your ideas and explore potential collaborations. After we finish the facilitated speed networking activity, we’ll share a light lunch and have time for informal discussion about how partners can work together to achieve shared goals. Space is limited, so sign up today to find new faculty-community partnerships that benefit our community! Register by 3/17/25

Being at your Peak!

Workshop/Training | Sparkshops

The professoriate can be a very satisfying life-long career IF it is handled well. Long-term work-life balance requires two things: a vision of what is needed for success professionally and personally and the work habits used by successful academics to achieve long-term work and life satisfaction. This practical interactive workshop, based on the evidence-based Peak Performing model, will explore the challenge of doing well in faculty jobs without having to be perfect. The workshop is based on the workshop, Peak Performing Professor, and the book, The Peak Performing Professor: A Practical Guide to Productivity and Happiness, both by Susan Robison (The Destressor Professor).
