Just now getting to really look at this list and it’s great reminder of everything we should be thinking about with our staff (pro and students!) Thanks for compiling this!

Thanks for this information! Great share!

Went to a session in Denver and the biggest take away I had was to make sure the training was in the location that the emergencies could happen. Walk the spaces, show them the exits have them really interact with the event venue etc. I had been having our event security training in the Union and moved it to our Event Center where the big…

Today after working an event until midnight and not getting to bed until 1am, it meant THE WORLD to me to have a brand new co-worker say to me this morning –  “That event sounds amazing! Those videos were so cool! You put on this fantastic event – but who was there to see it beyond the students?” which we know that usually the answer is “no… Read more

So I know many of us pick a “word of the year” which highlights in a general way Goals/New Year’s resolutions/etc. I’d love to hear some of them AND I’d like to challenge us all to work on an ACUI Core Competency this year! What are those? Well here’s a link.

• Planting false or partially false narratives about targets

Immediately a shiver went up my spine because I had to have a VERY frank discussion with my boss ( a male) about the line that I was having to draw in terms of taking things on because of past supervisors (who had been women – not that that was mentioned) and this EXACT problem of… Read more

I’m struggling with needing more staff! I am an office of ONE. I do have a GA, but he’s a student (even working as a para-professional he still has limited hours) – I do not have enough hours in the day to do all the things. Create an event, promote the event, attend the event (running an event with one other person is nuts). This is not a… Read more

Thanks so much for sharing this article! I’m a book reader so that’s definitely a self-care item for me on a regular basis – I also love to watch K Drama shows on Netflix. Korean dramas are very different from American shows and they can be a nice mix of silliness, workplace comedy and sometimes drama with work/families.
