<Title>Spring 2024 Multicultural Leadership Experience (MLE)</Title>
<Tagline>Spring Registration Now Open!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><strong>Applications for the Spring '24 MLE Cohort can be found <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScRf1jYuZb-4r6pHuwFRl1uDsv70D7t7-UeaQGyQTBG_sZLLA/viewform?usp=sf_link" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">HERE</a>. </strong></p>
    <p><strong>The Multicultural Leadership Experience (MLE) is a collaboration between Campus Life and Initiatives for Identity Inclusion &amp; Belonging (i3B), that seeks to: </strong></p>
    <p><strong>Engage participants in a multicultural development and leadership learning program; <br>Enhance participants' understanding of their social identities, leader identity, as well as their capacity to lead; <br>And enable participants' development through authenticity, self-awareness, relationships, and capitalizing on difference. </strong></p>
    <div><strong><br></strong></div>
    <div><span><div>The sessions are as follows:<div> </div>
    </div>
    <div>
    <div>- Meeting #1: Monday, February 12th, 3pm - 4:30pm</div>

    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <div>Participants will be exploring the concept of Authentic Leadership, Legacy Building, and Breaking Barriers of White Supremacy within Leadership. We will do this in a leadership learning cohort by: </div>
    <ul>
    <li>Enhancing participants' leader identity and leadership capacity using an identity-conscious lens and student development theories;</li>
    <li>Increasing participants' awareness of their personal abilities, identity development, and intersections that shape their story through authenticity, self-reflection, and cultural humility;</li>
    <li>Exploring the role they play in developing relationships while building intra/intercultural connections; </li>
    <li>And capitalizing on their differences, specifically in relation to their racial, ethnic, national, and other salient identity social groups</li>
    </ul>
    <div> </div>
    <div>The purpose of all MLE programs is to provide a space for students and student leaders who identify within diverse or marginalized backgrounds to discover their own capacity to lead, while also promoting a better understanding of their experiences, issues, strengths, and outcomes in navigating their own collegiate careers. However, ALL students are welcome to apply!   </div>

<Title>December 22 Administrative Leave Day</Title>
<Tagline>Enjoy Winter Break!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>Dear Colleagues, </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>As we celebrated our annual service awards last week, one of the messages we hope you heard is that "You Matter." It is important to us that you know you are valued and we appreciate you.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>To that end, we will observe Friday, December 22, as an Administrative Leave day. This will extend our winter break, with the campus reopening on Tuesday, January 2, 2024. Timesheets for eligible Regular and Contingent II employees will be automatically coded with the administrative leave code (ADM). </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Please check with your supervisor to see if you are required to maintain essential services during this time. All collective bargaining employees required to work on this day will be paid in accordance with their collective bargaining agreements. Other employees who are required for essential services may use this Administrative Leave day on another day prior to March 31, 2024. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>We would like to thank all of you for your commitment to the university and our students. We hope you enjoy a restful and joyful winter break!</div>
