The Upstander training will help you build the skills to interrupt bullying or other harmful behaviors and comments.

Those who plan to attend are asked to commit to be present for the entire training session.
This ecumenical service of prayer, silence, song and chant is a great way to lead yourself into a busy week.

No advance notice required. Come as you are.
Join the Dean of the Conservatory as you explore the concepts of sound and experience the world through a greater appreciation of hearing and listening, recalling, and creating.
This circle provides a safe space to connect with the greater community. They are an opportunity for a community to come together, slow down, and connect around stories and themes that everyone can relate to in some way. Participants share to the extent that they feel comfortable. Topics are set to allow the circle to share and different depths, with one person talking at a time, each person is seen and heard.
No two stories are alike, and telling a story is connecting with others.
You are invited to explore the video series for yourself and consider how your shared story would look. Telling your spiritual story means sharing a part of your identity.
The Spiritual Lives at Lawrence video series allows members of the Lawrence community an opportunity to let their story be known, and to let others into this special part of their identity.
Consider what your spirituality means to you, what your journey has been, and sign up to be a part of the series.
