University of Michigan Ombuds Launches Blog

Tom Lehker, the UM Ombudsman for Students, has started a blog: Conflict as a Catalyst for Change. After an initial post to introduce himself, Lehker's latest post is about, "The Process (and not just the content) of Dispute Resolution." He offers three pieces of advice for people working through a conflict: 1. Listening is paramount; 2. Validating the experiences of others; and 3. Expressing empathy. (UM Ombuds Blog.)
