Michigan State University preparing students for election results with self care and safe space information.
I obtained the email from the University
EAST LANSING, Mich - I obtained an email that was sent to Michigan State University students from Amanda Flores, Ph.D. the Associate Director of the office of Diversity, Inclusion and Community Partnerships.
The email says “On Election Day and in the days that follow, faculty and students at Michigan State University are preparing to engage in open discussions, process diverse reactions, and foster a supportive environment as they navigate the political outcomes and their impact on the campus community.”
On Friday, November 1st, The University paid to have Dr. Srivi Ramasubramanian from Syracuse University lead a virtual interactive workshop on Facilitating Classroom Conversations on the Current Political Climate: A Trauma-Informed Dialogic Approach.
The email to students suggests they should, “consider your self-care, take breaks if needed, recognize when you have to step away, and allow for self-reflection. The email also said students might not be prepared to engage on Election Day or post-Election Day conversations immediately, but you can assess your mental and well-being by reflecting on this question.
The email lists some of these tips to deal with the outcome of the election:
MSU also linked to UC Berkley which has a guide on how to deal with election stress.
The email cites informatoin from author Dr. Srivi Ramasubramanian from Syracuse University who held a seminar on campus back on November 1.
The session was called — Faciliating conversations on the Current Political Climate: A Trauma-Informed Dialogic Approach. The presentation focused on her work with the Trauma-informed Equity-minded Asset-based Model (TEAM).
What is your take about this messaging from Michigan State University?
These are the future leaders of our country?
Lol. Thats the setup. Convince them of their own incompetence by encouraging fake self pity under the guise of “self-care” and “open discussion of their feelings” about an election. The intelligent ones must have more courage to dissent and mock the charade.
