We will be publishing weekly E-news articles covering a variety of Risk Management and general safety topics in an effort to continue 51Թ's great safety track record. The campus bulletin boards will also have fresh updates, posters and helpful tips. As we head into the winter weather conditions, let's take a moment to refresh our focus on key safety practices to ensure the safety of all.
Whether you have questions, need guidance, or just want to talk, open "office" hours are available Tuesdays and Fridays from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. each week.

Imagine you are ready to change your moment. The trouble is that you can’t seem to get to the one thing that’s most important because you’re busy, tired, don’t know where to start or you doubt if you even have it in you. The problem isn’t you; the problem is the problem. This 45-minute hybrid presentation will lay down the foundation to take you from “here’s what I want to do” to “here’s what I did.” Join Bassam Tarazi's "Getting Things Done in a World That Doesn’t Want You To" talk on Wed., February 26. Advanced registration is recommended.
