Looking Forward to Working Together

Dear Students, Faculty, and Staff,

I am excited to join the CC community as the new Assistant Vice President for Civil Rights and Title IX Coordinator. I come to CC after having spent over a decade conducting employment and housing discrimination cases for the State of Utah Labor Commission before moving to Salt Lake Community College in May 2020 to be their inaugural Title IX Coordinator/EO Director. In my role at SLCC, I had the opportunity to work with the community to address the concerns related to civil rights and Title IX, improving the interaction with the community and the Title IX/Civil Rights office.

 

Along with Josh Isringhausen, Assistant Director for Civil Rights and Deputy Title IX Coordinator, I will lead CC’s Office for Civil Rights and Title IX. Our office is a resource for addressing concerns related to discrimination, harassment, dating/domestic violence, stalking, and sexual misconduct, including retaliation. I am looking forward to continuing the growth of our anti-racist community and helping further create an environment where all members of the community are safe, supported, and able to thrive.

 

In pursuit of these goals, and in response to the recent uptick in anti-Semitic and anti-Islamic threats on campuses across the country, CC will be offering training on these subjects:

 

  • Monday, December 11, at 3:30 p.m., please join an antisemitism training webinar with Kirsten Fermaglich,  Professor of History and Jewish Studies at Michigan State University. Register in advance.
  • Tuesday, December 12, at 3 p.m., please join an Islamophobia training webinar with Amer Ahmed, Vice Provost for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at the University of Vermont. Register in advance.

 

A gentle reminder to our community that college employees who are not identified as confidential resources are mandated reporters. You can learn more about what this means and how to find confidential resources on our website.

 

Kind regards,

David Jensen

Assistant Vice President for Civil Rights and Title IX Coordinator

Career Center Highlights

Questions Corner: Your Questions Answered!

Did you see the Career Center tabling in Worner Campus Center on Halloween? We asked you to share questions you were afraid to ask the Career Center so we can answer them in our newsletter. 
This week’s question is: Where do I get help with my resume and how do I write one? 
Your resume is your first impression for a prospective employer. It is a professional and legal document that demonstrates your qualifications for a position and its goal is to get you an interview. Employers typically spend less than 30 seconds reviewing your resume so it is crucial that it is well-organized, concise, and tailored to the role you are applying for.

To begin writing your resume you can utilize the Resume Formatting Template and the Resume Guide. You can have a variety of sections on your resume such as Education, Work, Volunteer, Leadership, Skills, Certifications, and Extracurriculars. The resume bullet points are very important! Your resume bullet points are more than a list of tasks and responsibilities. They are your opportunity to showcase your accomplishments, impacts, and skills! Building your resume bullets can be easier by following a framework: Action Verb + Task/Project + Metric, Result, or Additional Information. 

For more resources on resumes, you can check out our website. If you would like help with creating your resume you can schedule a meeting with a Career Consultant or stop by our drop-in hours Monday-Thursday 1 to 4 pm.

Two Days Till Small Mouth Sounds Production

TWO DAYS Till the Opening Night of the Theatre and Dance Fall Production:

Small Mouth Sounds

Small Mouth Sounds
By Bess Wohl
Directed by Gleason Bauer
December 7-9, 14-16 at 7:30 p.m.
Norberg Studio Theater
Cornerstone Arts Center  

The Theatre and Dance Department presents the first production of the 2023-24 school year, Small Mouth Sounds, directed by Gleason Bauer (they/them). Bauer is a somatic educator and award-winning theater artist known for creating ensemble-based, physically driven content that is both visually lush and emotionally resonant. 
About the production: 

“In the overwhelming quiet of the woods, six runaways from city life embark on a silent retreat. As these strangers confront internal demons both profound and absurd, their vows of silence collide with the achingly human need to connect. Filled with awkward and insightful humor, Small Mouth Sounds by Bess Wohl is a unique and compassionate play that asks how you address life’s biggest questions when you can’t say a word.”

– 2016 Critics’ Pick The New York Times, New York Magazine, Time Out New York.
