Clara Hughes: Open Heart, Open Mind - Hallman Lecture
Clara Hughes, a six-time Olympic medalist and mental health advocate, shares her candid experience living with depression to inspire others to face their fears and find their voice. As the founding spokesperson for Bell Let's Talk, she explores the power of movement to change lives and emphasizes the importance of deep connection with oneself and others.
Seedling Swap
People who have excess seedlings (whether grown themselves or acquired elsewhere) can swap for other seedlings, or simply donate them. Those who are interested in getting seedlings but do not have seedlings to trade can bring a non-perishable food item as payment during the swap. The donated food will be given to WUSA’s Food Support Service. Any leftover seedlings will be donated to a community organization.

Gen Z talent preferences have shifted over time, and it matters. Our free virtual event provides insights for HR professionals and hiring managers who want to understand where Gen Z preferences align and where they differ. We’ll spotlight how to stand out during recruitment, perceptions of AI in the workplace and how supervisor support can drive successful and impactful work experiences.
