SUMMARY:ONLINE: Stories Spark Change - Roxane Gay in Conversation with Eternity Martis: A discussion of survivorship and healing from sexual violence
DESCRIPTION:Stories Spark Change – Roxane Gay in Conversation with Eternity Martis: A discussion of survivorship and healing from sexual violence \nJoin internationally renowned author Roxane Gay and best-selling author Eternity Martis for an in-depth conversation about how we can address how we police ourselves as survivors to reclaim our story and push back against shame to create space for healing. As survivors\, we may internalize the lie that our pleasure\, needs and healing are too much of a burden. Stories Spark Change is an opportunity to explore letting go of guilt and blame\, knowing that sexual violence is never our fault. This night will be a celebration of healing\, self-love and pleasure. \nRegister online. \nStories Spark Change Organizing Committee: Ryerson University\, Laurier University\, Carleton University\, Queen’s University\, McMaster University\, University of Guelph\, University of Windsor\, University of Toronto\, York University. \nStories Spark Change is part of Consent Action Week\, an educational initiative held during the last week of January at universities across Ontario. The week is an opportunity for campus communities to create a dialogue about consent\, pleasure\, relationships and increase understanding of sexual violence. It’s also an opportunity to raise awareness of both on and off-campus services. The Ontario University Sexual Violence Network created Consent Action Week 2018. \nContent note: this is a conversation about healing and will not be about the harm that occurred.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Arboretum Workshop - Virtual Constellation “Walk”
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Trevor Chandler \nLearning the night sky is like getting to know a new neighborhood. At first\, it may seem big and confusing\, but as you strike out and become more and more familiar with prominent landmarks\, the day comes when you realize that the neighborhood is no longer new. It’s home. \nJoin us for monthly sessions as we get to know the night sky a little better. Participants will be introduced to prominent stars and constellations\, where to look for them and how the motions of planet Earth cause them to appear to shift from hour to hour and month to month. You will receive a downloadable star map to help you make your way through the stars. We’ll learn a half dozen or so constellations every month and you will be invited to discuss your observations with the group as we each get to know the neighborhood a little better. \nFee: $10 (plus HST) per person\, per session (evening) \nLearn more online.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Data Skills - Introduction to GIS using ArcGIS Pro

ArcPro is available for download to the University community. Although similar in some ways to online mapping sites\, ArcGIS has greater analytical capabilities and allows you more input and control over your map. \nIn this workshop we will learn how to navigate ArcPro\, kinds of GIS data\, how to add data to a map\, basic symbology and labelling\, how to filter data\, and how to create a finished map. \nPLEASE NOTE: \nYou must use a University of Guelph login to self-register for this workshop.
