It becomes especially important, however, in moments of discernible collective unrest in response to major campus, community, national, or global events.
We would like to share a few resources that may help you think about how to address these moments. We welcome feedback and the sharing of additional practices. Please email sropp@upenn.edu with your thoughts. As these resources evolve in collaboration with our communities, the most up-to-date version will always be available on this blog post.
