Advising Students in Trying Times
Kristen Rothrock Goodrich, Academic Advisor, Life Science Division, Rutgers University
In the last year, Kristin has witnessed her students struggle to deal with the chaotic and changing policies coming out of Washington. Her students’ resilience and tenacity in the face of extreme stresses have inspired her to protest and speak out. Kristin will share her experiences and her hope for the future.
Kristen Rothrock Goodrich was raised at UUCMC and was pleased to have returned for our Social Justice Forum. In her job, she provides support for students’ emotional, academic, and social well-being. She is married and the mother of a son in middle school and a daughter attending University College of Dublin.
The weekly service link is sent out via email each week. In addition, our weekly eblast that comes out on Thursday mornings has loads of information about UUCMC happenings. If you are not already on our email list, click the button in the footer to sign up. Our Facebook page (click here) is also updated as information unfolds.
We welcome you into our meetinghouse or you can join us in community from your homes.
February Theme: THE GIFT OF JUSTICE AND EQUITY
Your uprising against the forces of darkness has got to do more than say “no.” A fierce, primal yes should be at the heart of your crusade.
When we identify where our privilege intersects with somebody else’s oppression, we’ll find our opportunities to make real change.
If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.
In a racist society it is not enough to be non-racist, we must be anti-racist.
The government isn’t bad because it’s big: it’s bad because it’s bought.
Why is it that if you take advantage of a corporate tax break you’re a smart businessman, but if you take advantage of something so you don’t go hungry, you’re a moocher?
When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist.
Once poverty is gone, we’ll need to build museums to display its horrors to future generations. They’ll wonder why poverty continued so long in human society–how a few people could live in luxury while billions dwelt in misery, deprivation and despair.
It is certain, in any case, that ignorance, allied with power, is the most ferocious enemy justice can have.
