Undergraduate Interpersonal Growth Group (yearlong in-person at Rose Hill)

Group 1: Wednesdays at 3
Group 2: TBD

Do you get anxious in social situations? Feel isolated or depressed?  Struggle with transitions? Wish you were different? You're not alone! 

The power of an Interpersonal Growth Group lies in the interactions among members, the feedback and observations they give and receive, and what they learn about themselves in the process. Group members get help and help others at the same time. They gain insight into how others experience them, and they can experiment with being different. Students often report feeling less isolated, more self-aware, more connected to others, and more comfortable being uncomfortable as a result of their Group experience.

Graduate Student Support Space (yearlong on Zoom)

Fridays at 10-11am

The Graduate Student Support Space invites students to come together every week in an affirming environment, to share, to hear and be heard, and to give and receive support.
