Hello lovely Nighthawks!

We’ve got a few updates that we would love to blast out to you, so here it is! First…

WORKSHOPS

We have a few seats remaining for the workshop this Friday from 11AM to 2PM – PAUSE. This is the first of our DEI grant supported workshops, and we’re really looking forward to this one. We spent most of the day planning for this, and it’s really shaping up to be a good one. Just click on the PAUSE above to register – as always, lunch provided! And next…

THEMES for Fall

We were reminded once again, as we so often are, of our themes that we’ve adopted for our campus. Pause, Reflect, Discover, and Empathize. As we journey onward through these radical notions, we find it helpful to remember compassion… specifically, compassion for self! If you know someone here at NOVA who might be interested in getting to know what it might be like to approach all of this with a little more compassion, consider talking with them about investigating that together with some trusted friends. Hit the link below to see if this one might be something you or someone here at NOVA you know.

NEW FURNITURE!

We also were thrilled this morning to find that the ACCP got a bit of an upgrade! The new furniture is here for YOU to enjoy! Walk-in times for ANY AND ALL staff and faculty to come in and enjoy the center (Tea, Snacks, Fast Internet, Windows!) are Monday through Thursday, 1PM to 4PM. Just come on in and say hi, bring some grading if you’d like, have some tea after lunch, or just find some peace and quiet for some moments. The Center is here for YOU!

Peace and love, fellow humans! We hope to see you soon!
