The Daily Bruin

Join us on Wednesday, Nov. 15, at 7 p.m. for a discussion on navigating careers and motherhood. This workshop-style event will be led by Brandy Walton. Walton is both a business professor who has been teaching undergraduate students for 15 years and a mother of four.

While there is no “right” way to navigate these parts of life, we hope to facilitate an encouraging and valuable discussion. Bring your questions and prepare to explore this topic with friends! Use this link to register. We hope to see you there!

Come to a discussion with the hosts of the remarkable Oregon politics podcast, The Oregon Bridge, about how to have civil conversations from across partisan lines. The event will be in Hoover 105 on Monday, Nov. 13, at 7:15 p.m.

Democratic state legislator Ben Bowman and Republican political activist Reagan Knopp team up to run this podcast, despite the distinction in their political views, and they host guests of a wide range of views themselves.
