GUIDE, which stands for Guiding Universities in Demonstrating Empathy, helps faculty and staff build skills for meaningful, empathic conversations with students.

Each three-hour session sponsored by Student Affairs is led by experienced facilitators in counseling, public health, wellness, and higher education. GUIDE doesn’t add to your workload but prepares you for the real conversations you’re already having in classrooms, advising sessions, and hallways.

These in-person sessions are open to all faculty and staff:
