A Collective Approach Workshop: Dr. Chris Linder

Workshop/Training

As attention to campus sexual violence has grown in recent years, educators and staff have been pressured to respond quickly to comply with campus, local and federal policies. This pressure has resulted in a hyper-focus on compliance and response — after sexual violence happens, rather than working to prevent it from happening in the first place. Educators also may feel pressure to use a one-size fits all, “best practices” approach rather than developing their own, context-specific strategies. In this workshop, Chris talks about moving beyond the “expert model” to engage all members of the campus community who have an interest in addressing relationship and sexual violence. Participants will leave this workshop with several specific strategies they can use to immediately address campus sexual violence and an action plan for developing educational programming for the campus community. Dr. Chris Linder (she/her/hers) is the director of the McCluskey Center for Violence Prevention, which engages in research and education, at the University of Utah. She also is an associate professor of higher education; her scholarship focuses on sexual violence prevention and student activism.

Don't Be Reviewer 2: Reviewing for Journal and Conferences

Workshop/Training

Peer review is high stakes work; reviewer feedback influences (often determines) whether manuscripts are published, and for many academics, keeping their job depends on publishing their scholarship. In other words, peer reviews have material, professional consequences. It’s surprising, then, that scholars are rarely trained in how to be a good reviewer. In this workshop, you’ll learn a practical heuristic for providing peer review feedback that is inclusive, helpful, and appropriate.
