It feels disingenuous to wish you a *Happy* Conflict Resolution Day today. Instead, I hope you have a productive day managing & resolving any arguments, conflicts, disputes & disagreements that are making your life difficult.
Grateful to all my colleagues on this #ombudsday 2022. Having the greater community of ombuds makes this work so much easier.

I'm so excited for @waterbarnes' Virginia Tech visit this week!!! If you're on campus: consider attending her seminar, "Rethinking the Scientific Enterprise to Make it More Welcoming & Just", on Fri at 2:30p in the Fralin Auditorium.
(Thanks @jp_gannon & @vt_cnre for hosting!)

Desperate call for help. I lost a treasure today at the @virginia_tech #McComas gym. In the 12 years I've worn my wedding band, I can count the # of times I took it off. I did so today during a lunchtime workout. Please DM if you #found a white gold ring w/botanic engraving.

Ombuds and aspiring ombuds, I saw this opportunity on Tom's @Ombudsblog and want to encourage you to apply. Southwest Virginia is a wonderful place to live and work and this is a strong institution of Higher Ed in the region. ombuds-blog.blogspot.com/202…

Happy Ombuds day to all my friends and colleagues providing a supportive resource to help their constituents reframe their perspective of conflict and constructively work through the conflict situations they are experiencing.
Have you wondered how one becomes an ombuds? The @IntlOmbudsAssoc has a new series to help show the various pathways one may take called the Ombuds Journey. The latest post by Kristine Paranica, Ombuds at the University of North Dakota, is a great read: ombudsassociation.org/index.…
Academic bullying is a complex issue with no clear pathway for constructive engagement. Normalizing the conversations around this behavior is a great place to start. I am excited about this opportunity to partner with @academicimpress to begin this effort: academicimpressions.com/prod…
So how does one become an ombuds? To all my ombuds colleagues out there, we would love to hear your journey. The @IntlOmbudsAssoc is developing a series of blog posts to highlight the unique paths one may take to find success in this role. Learn more here: ioa.memberclicks.net/index.p…

Dean DePauw 's vision for a graduate education where students thrive throughout their experience has been an inspiring force in my work for the past three years. Her leadership will be missed, but the foundation is laid. @kpdepauw vtnews.vt.edu/articles/2020/…
