[Sehefac] SEHE events and social hour this Wednesday 1/15

[Dana Simmons]

Dear SEHE affiliates,
I hope that you and your loved ones are safe and well in the midst of
winds, outages and fires. This past week was difficult. I'm sure that you
have seen posts or messages with lists of resources; this one from Mutual
AId LA
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1KMk34XY5dsvVJjAoD2mQUVHYU_Ib6COz6jcGH5uJWDY/htmlview>
is particularly good and comprehensive (thanks to SEHE TA Leslie Perkins
for sharing it).
I'm writing to invite you and your students to three SEHE events this
*Wednesday
1/15*.

>From *5-6pm or so, please join us at the Stable* *for a SEHE social hour*,
where you can share a drink and a snack, meet new SEHE postdoc Aaron
Gregory and welcome SEHE faculty Cassia Roth to Riverside.

Prior to the social hour, please join the *Latinxs & the Environment
seminar (3:30-5pm, INTN 3023)* for a presentation by SEHE faculty Jade
Sasser on her climate anxiety research. Please consider offering extra
credit to your students for attending the Latinxs & the Environment seminar
on Wednesdays this quarter.

And before that, please send your students to the *SEHE Basic Needs
Connections Study Break (1/15 1-2pm, INTN 3023)*. Students can learn about
the resources that the Basic Needs Department offers (including  the
R'Pantry, Economic Crisis response grants, emergency housing and
distributions in response to the recent fires) and catch up on the latest
SEHE news as well. Lunch will be provided.

Finally, mark your students' calendar for the *SEHE Winter Open House on
Wednesday January 29 (12:30-1:30pm, INTN 3023)*. Students can learn about
the new majors, upcoming classes, and summer and research opportunities.
Sam Ying will talk about the Latinxs & the Environment summer program; Macy
Ring (Undergraduate Education) will share information about UCDC; and we'll
also hear about the UC Labor summer internship program. If you would like
to share information with SEHE students about a summer or research
opportunity, please let me know.

I'll attach flyers for these three student-facing events and I'd be super
grateful if you could share them with your students.
Thank you and I hope to see you at the social hour on Wednesday!
Dana
