Traumatic experiences or relationships often lead us to develop unhealthy coping strategies such as, social isolation/anxiety, quickly jumping into unhealthy relationships, difficulty with trusting and enforcing our boundaries when we need them most or increased alcohol, cannabis, or other drug use. Unbreakable: Rising from Within provides a supportive and confidential environment for students to begin the healing process by learning about common reactions to trauma and ways to recognize and overcome these potentially debilitating triggers. We will work to remind ourselves of the importance of boundaries, increase self-confidence and learn and practice healthier coping strategies to promote overall health and wellbeing.To join this group therapy session, please call SHaW at 860-486-4700 (tel:+18604864705) This session is held by Cassaundra Popek, LMFT (https://studenthealth.uconn.edu/person/cassaundra-popek-lmft/) For many concerns that students face – like overwhelming stress, anxiety, difficult relationships, depression, academic difficulties, and more – group therapy is the best option for support and healing.

- 4:00 PM1h 30mECOM Speaker Series: Prof. Nadja-Mira YolcuI explorehow suspension of belief can be expressed in speech.We have non-explicit means to express suspension of belief, for instance, by asking "p?" or asserting "It may be thatpbut it may also be that not-p" (Rosa2025). I am, however, particularly interested in ways toself-ascribedoxastic suspension. Obvious candidates are not only avowals, like utterances of "I suspend belief…," "I am agnostic…," "I amdoxasticallyneutral/undecided," or "I am in doubt as to whetherp" (Rosa2025), but alsodisavowals (or negative avowals), like utterances of "I can't say whetherp" (Ferrari &Incurvati2022), "I have no idea whetherp," "I don't know (whetherp)" (Wagner 2022), or "I don't believe thatpand I don't believe that not-p."I propose that we analyzean utterance of "I suspend belief whetherp" as being expressively equivalent to an utterance of "I don't believe thatpand I don't believe that not-p".I investigate how the conjunction of doxastic disavowals can function to express suspension of belief by reference to an expressivist analysis of disavowals.
