Aug. 23 – Seeking Bishop Way Volunteers

We are looking for staff/faculty volunteers to serve as Bishop Way small group facilitators on Tuesday, August 23 for first-year students. We need facilitators to commit to at least one of the 2 in-person sessions below — because the class is larger this year, we hope to have 35 facilitators at each session. Some of you have served in this capacity before and we would love your support again. For those who have not facilitated before, we hope you consider participating — we will host training this summer to review the content and presentation.

If you can help, please complete this Google Form: owu.edu/ex/yourls/bishopway2022 by Friday, August 5. We appreciate your support in advance!

Camp Oh-Wooo Presentation August 23, 2022:
10am – 12pm
1pm – 3pm

The session will discuss general statistics the incoming class provided to us in surveys they take before they arrive, review some learning points they might have missed, and share University support resources. Your role will be to help lead the discussion about escalation, active bystander skills, and resources. We want students to have positive discussions about sexual respect and what it means to be a Bishop in a community that cares for each other and their well-being. You will lead students in discussing the early warning signs of relationship abuse and what they can do if they witness or experience these warning signs. We will also ask you to reiterate resources on campus to support mental health and safe alcohol/other drug use.
