Befriending Anxiety
Anxiety serves an important function, but our nervous system doesn’t always pick the right moment or know when to stop. Each week we will look at an approach to managing anxiety, such as mindfulness-based stress reduction, cognitive behavioral therapy or polyvagal theory. We will include exercises for settling down but also for staying alert, for when we want to feel calmer, but we have things to do.McCullough - Mitchell Green Lounge

Biology Seminar Series: Saul Speaker- Marjorie Weber
The Evolutionary Ecology of Plant-Bodyguard Defense Mutualisms
As a way to defend themselves against attack from herbivores and pathogens, some plants recruit bodyguards: animals that defend the plant against its enemies in return for food or shelter that the plant provides. This talk will discuss the evolution and ecology of plant bodyguard defense strategy, evaluating hypotheses about why some plants have traits that attract bodyguards and others do not.
