Women’s History Month, Guided Journaling, Social Media, and More! March Recap 🎉🌻📚

The Center for Student Engagement and Activities has had a busy March! As we’re wrapping up and preparing for the new month ahead, we wanted to share an ICYMI recap of all the fun stuff we’ve been up to!

We started off March by celebrating Women’s History Month with our Leadership Student Organization, OmegaNU. In honor of this year’s theme, Celebrating Women Who Tell Our Stories, we reflected on those who have helped us in our own journeys and inspire us to tell our stores.

We got competitive in a game of Women’s History Trivia.

And were inspired by these powerful TikToks!

In addition to this, we had the opportunity to support the NU Speaker Series, featuring the Women’s History Month-themed talk: Be Unstoppable by Julie Ducharme. Themes of love, learning from failure, among others were empowering! 

Following our Women’s History Month festivities, we had a Mentoring Webinar with speaker Prince Marshall where we learned how to make meaningful connections, develop as a mentor/mentee, and how to utilize the amazing benefits of our NU Mentoring Network (which you should definitely sign up for if you haven’t already!).

Speaking of webinars, we also had a Social Media Webinar where NU’s very own social media team—Jess Booth and Cloe Rehbein—taught us how to glow up our social media, create a content strategy, and use our social media to grow our personal brands!

If you haven’t already, we definitely recommend you follow NU’s social media channels. If you tag them and use our hashtags #NUfam and #NUCSEA, you might just be featured!

Both our Mentoring Webinar and Social Media Webinar recordings can be viewed right here on our blog under the “Event Recordings” tab.

Last but not least, we also took some time this March to pause and engage with mindfulness through our Guided Journaling Session on self-care. In collaboration with Student Wellness, the Whole Person Center, and our Mind + Body Wellness Student Organization, we reflected on what makes us feel alive, how community shows up for us, and how we can celebrate ourselves.

We had so much fun getting to connect with our students and NU Community this month and we hope you join us next month to continue the conversations, connections, and celebrations!
