What's the Tennessee 11? The Tennessee 11 (T11) is a documentary that was produced by Builders (https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbuildersmovement.org%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cmarc.massicotte%40uconn.edu%7C685bef421baf444a8a8e08dd67a3763f%7C17f1a87e2a254eaab9df9d439034b080%7C0%7C0%7C638780673949203991%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=sNk6DonVoZLxEuFpiVY2PZjs5yaC5Xn55yWmp6P%2Bf9Y%3D&reserved=0) (formerly "Starts With Us"), an organization focused on facilitating civil dialogue around polarizing topics in America. The documentary follows 11 Tennesseans (that are ideologically diverse on this issue – and probably many others) as they work to find consensus on firearms policies or interventions. Builders convened the T11 after the Covenant School (https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tennessean.com%2Fstory%2Fnews%2Flocal%2F2023%2F03%2F31%2Finside-nashville-covenant-school-shooting-police-response%2F70061034007%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cmarc.massicotte%40uconn.edu%7C685bef421baf444a8a8e08dd67a3763f%7C17f1a87e2a254eaab9df9d439034b080%7C0%7C0%7C638780673949216546%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=mxlDD%2BGNjtkULpB6xHk6RljVPf7h4yRBwAeXPi4QPfU%3D&reserved=0) (in Nashville) shooting and (coincidentally) at the same time the Tennessee State Legislature was in session to debate potential new gun laws in Tennessee. The T11 were not direct victims of the Covenant School shooting, rather they are Tennesseans whose state was affected by tragedy. Like many Americans, some of them have other experiences with gun injury and those experiences certainly influence how they think about guns in America/ Tennessee.

BLOOM: Undergraduate Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) This group is a space created for female Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) - identifying students to cultivate vulnerability, safety, trust, connection, and growth. Bloom provides a place for group members to discuss issues unique to their experience at a predominantly white institution (PWI), including academic stress, relationships, race/ethnicity related stress, familial pressures and navigating cultural expectations. There will be an emphasis on healing, maintaining healthy relationships and setting boundaries. Bloom means to be open, blossom and to maintain flourishing conditions that help us grow. It's time to Bloom. To join this group therapy session, please call SHaW at 860-486-4700 (tel:+18604864705) This session is held by Natasha Welz, DSW, LCSW (https://studenthealth.uconn.edu/person/natasha-welz/) 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. Facilitated by Student Health and Wellness (SHaW) counselors, our therapy groups encourage peer support, promote emotional wellbeing, and increase a felt sense of connection. Participants often find that they feel less alone in their struggles, and walk away with newfound support and ideas for coping.

Wellness Warriors: Shifting Perspectives on Addictive Behaviors" Wellness Warriors is a confidential, judgement-free therapy group aimed at supporting students who feel like they've lost their way in their relationship with alcohol and/or other substances and struggling with other mental health/ addictive challenges. Whether you want to figure out where you stand, cut back, or quit completely, we are here to help. This group is about giving you the info, tools, and support you need to achieve the change you want to make, through education, skills building, and peer support.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.

The panel will explore perspectives at the intersection of art, science, and engineering: What is the role of clouds and the turbulent atmosphere in art, science, and engineering? Clouds are always transient: How do we observe, analyze, and understand ephemerality? Clouds and their role in environmental change, from extreme weather to climate change impacts: what are opportunities and challenges in visual communication and public engagement? The panel is held in conjunction with the exhibition Clouds: A Collaboration with Fluid Dynamics (https://benton.uconn.edu/clouds-a-collaboration-with-fluid-dynamics/). FREE. Everyone is welcome. RSVP appreciated.This is an Honors Event. See tags below for categories. #UHLevent11229PANELISTSAnn Fridlind is a Physical Scientist at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies. Dr. Fridlind's studies have concentrated at the intersection of detailed models and rich observational data sets to advance understanding of the clouds that are most relevant to Earth's climate. She has used a wide array of airborne in situ and ground-based and satellite remote-sensing data to study stratiform clouds from Arctic to Antarctic, tropical to mid-latitude deep convection, mid-latitude continental cumulus and synoptic cirrus, and subtropical stratocumulus. She is also a developer of cloud microphysics schemes in computational codes, such as NASA's ModelE3 climate model.Helen Glazer is a visual artist whose work bridges photography and three‑dimensional sculpture. Helen 's photography and sculpture made from 3D scans are profoundly influenced by scientific insights into the physical forces that shape ecological environments, including human activity. A 2015 participant in the National Science Foundation Antarctic Artists and Writers Program, her solo show of that project, "Walking in Antarctica" is currently touring US museums and galleries. She is working on a photographic landscape history of Kangerlussuaq, Greenland, focused on the impacts of a US Cold War air base and climate change.Miad Yazdani is a principal fellow at RTRC. Dr. Yazdani is responsible for leading strategic initiatives and defining technology roadmaps particularly pertinent to interfacial physics to ensure RTX's competitive advantage in key technological areas is preserved and expanded while having impact to business units' near-term and long-term technological objectives and requirements.   Moderated by George Matheou, Associate Professor in the School of Mechanical, Aerospace and Manufacturing Engineering. Dr. Matheou's research focuses on computational fluid dynamics, leveraging theory, advanced algorithms, and data to study complex multi-physics fluid flows, with applications in weather forecasting and climate. Dr. Matheou is recognized for his innovative approaches to research and education, including integrating artistic expression to engage students.
