The California Caucus of College and University Ombuds has announced the details of its 34th Annual Conference at the Asilomar Conference Center on the Monterey Penninsula, November 11-14. The theme of the conference is "Ombudsing in an Age of Anxiety: Connecting Face to Face." In addition to the popular social events, the program will include sessions on:
Bullying in the Workplace
What Would You Do?
How I Made a Difference in an Anxious Case
What Causes Anxiety?
Communication in an Ombuds World
Group Facilitation
Intervening with Suicidal Ideation
Electronic Media & the Role of the Ombuds
The cost for the event, including three nights lodging, is just $450 (double occupancy) if you register by August 31. Contact Lewis Redding, the JPL Ombuds, for more details (lewis[dot]a[dot]redding[at-sign]jpl[dot]nasa[dot]gov).
Don't let the name put you off. The conference is well attended by people who are from outside California, who do not work in higher education, and who are not ombuds.
