Fraternity & Sorority Life Education Conference
Registration
Details
We are thrilled to bring Lori Hart to campus as our keynote speaker. The following is a description of her program, "The Safety Pillar": Just about any sorority or fraternity member has heard the term "The Pillars of Greek Life." When asked what the pillars represent, most members can easily rattle off the terms "brotherhood & sisterhood, scholarship, leadership, service & philanthropy" and for the most part, we have communities and chapters excelling in these areas. But, in these same communities, we are also excelling in hazing, drug use, assault and high-risk drinking. Perhaps this year, we need to re-frame this conversation. If we truly want to be brothers and sisters, we need to focus on a pillar of "safety" to ensure that all members, new members and guests are treated with dignity and respect and we keep each other safe because that is what real friendship is about and that is what being a good human being is truly about.
Check in begins at 12:30pm and your spot may not be guaranteed after 12:45pm.
If you have questions concerning access or to request accommodations for this conference, please contact the FSL Advisors at greeklife@sa.ucsb.edu.

2:20 PM – 3:20 PM
Do you ever feel like you've "fooled" those around you into thinking you're competent? Do you sometimes think that your success is due to dumb luck or a mistake? You might be experiencing imposter syndrome. Imposter syndrome is a collection of feelings of inadequacy that persist despite evident success. This can cause persistent feelings of being a fraud, fake, or imposter. Importantly, imposter syndrome is not simply an individual issue. It is a systemic problem in which the norms of institutions make marginalized individuals feel like they don't belong. In this breakout session, you will learn how imposter syndrome manifests and how to fight those feelings of double and insecurity on both the systemic and personal level.
2:20 PM – 3:20 PM
Stress has a huge impact on the lives and wellbeing of college students. Over 50% of college students report "more than average" to "tremendous level" of stress within the past 12 months. This stress can impair relaxation, causing poor sleep quality. In this breakout session, you will learn about the manifestations of excessive stress, coping tools for managing stress, and strategies to improve sleep quality.
2:20 PM – 3:20 PM
Please help UCSB CARE develop a new bystander intervention program to combat interpersonal violence. We ask for your insights on campus culture and student needs in relation to interpersonal violence, anti-oppression practice, and program delivery. Each listening session will be audio recorded, strictly, for data purposes and program development. No identifying information will be collected or retained. Audio recordings will remain with the CARE office only. Listening sessions are safe, non-judgemental spaces, and participants are encouraged to answer questions freely.
2:20 PM – 3:20 PM
The goal of this workshop is to understand the societal expectations placed on men and how that reinforces the notion of what 'real men' are supposed to be. In this workshop, we discuss dominant narratives of masculinity and its impacts on the community as well as men, and how they perpetuate interpersonal violence. We also discuss actions that participants can take in creating healthier masculinities, the norm at UCSB.
2:20 PM – 3:20 PM
Interested in getting more involved in the Isla Vista community? Join the IV Recreation and Parks District for a discussion about building community, the history of the organization, and how you can get involved in community engagement and leadership opportunities.
2:20 PM – 3:20 PM
Life Of The Party will be providing you a breakout session filled with fun, games, and education. This is an opportunity to test your knowledge against your fellow classmates!

2:20 PM – 3:20 PM

2:20 PM – 3:20 PM
This session will outline 10 things that college students can do to be more environmentally friendly in their everyday life, with small group discussions embedded throughout to identify why these things are not happening in our community and to create action items.

Wrap up will include a Kahoot game and prizes!
