VPVA Grad Violence Prevention Workshop

Professional relationships in academia are unique to other professional or corporate settings. The relationships between advisors and graduate students or among trainees are predicated on defined power dynamics. Navigating conflict among colleagues who often also feel like friends can be challenging. If you find yourself increasingly feeling that something is amiss in your workplace, avoiding interacting with colleagues, and feeling emotional unsafety – know that this is a common challenge faced by graduate students, and there are resources on campus available to help!

Learn how to navigate these challenges at our graduate student workshop facilitated by VPVA. VPVA is committed to creating a community free from violence, and they are a confidential resource that provides services to all Rutgers students. This event is co-sponsored by the Graduate Student Association and the Office of Graduate Student Life. Dinner will be provided for in-person participants. Please RSVP HERE.
