- Oct 104:00 PMBLOOM: Undergraduate Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC)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 Chantaul Smith, LMFT (https://studenthealth.uconn.edu/person/chantaul-smith/) 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.

- Oct 104:00 PMTax Enforcement by the Private Sector: Deputizing Tax InsurersThe IRS is outgunned when trying to ensure compliance by large corporations and other sophisticated taxpayers, but the private sector might be able to help. This talk argues for using a private sector party—tax insurers—to expand the IRS's enforcement abilities. Tax insurance is just insurance: If an insured tax position is successfully challenged by a tax authority, the insurer commits to paying the additional taxes owed (plus interest and penalties), up to the policy limit. This talk proposes that the IRS take advantage of insurers' informational and capacity advantages by effectively deputizing insurers as private sector tax enforcers, treating the positions they insure as having been "sustained" in a private "audit." With the right combination of sticks and carrots, private sector tax enforcers could be incentivized to live up to their commitment to "sustain" only strong positions, and taxpayers could be incentivized to pursue "audits" by private sector tax enforcers that live up to those commitments. The talk also identifies the potential concerns the proposal would need to overcome to harness a growing private sector industry for the public good. Recommended Reading: Heather M. Field, Tax Enforcement by the Private Sector: Deputizing Tax Insurers, 99 Ind. L.J. 1179 (2024).
