Vogel Library Events

A Reading Rebellion

Join us: Tuesday, Jan 7 from 12-1 PM. (feel free to bring your lunch!)

Location: first floor Vogel Library study lounge

We will discuss the power of words as we share our thoughts about books that have been challenged due to "offensive language." Who decides what language is offensive? Who could be hurt by including offensive language? Is anyone hurt by omitting it?

Additional meetings will be held on February 4, March 11, April 8, and May 6.

Join us: Sunday, Jan 12 & Tuesday, Jan 14 from 1-4 PM.

Location: second floor Vogel Library Kreativwerkstatt

Now is the perfect time to create a vision board - a visual representation of your goals and dreams. The goal is to identify and clarify your goals, visualize them, and develop a plan to achieve them. Materials will be available in the Kreativwerkstatt. Feel free to drop by just long enough to get started or to stay until your vision board is complete. Either way, we're here to cheer you on!

Join us: Sunday, Jan 12 & Tuesday, Jan 14 from 1-4 PM.

Location: third floor Vogel Library Rotunda

From syllabus to success - stop by to master the art of semester planning! We'll offer paper/pencil planning tools as well as digital templates that can help you to stay on top of assignments, due dates, and other commitments this term. Bring your syllabi and special events calendars to this drop-in event, and walk away ready to take on Winter Term!

Join us: Monday, Jan 13 from 6-8 PM.

Location: second floor Vogel Library Kreativwerkstatt

Learning to mend your clothes can save you money, can reduce textile waste, and can be a creative outlet. Sewing machines and sewing kits are always available in the Kreativwerkstatt, but we'll have staff on hand to cheer you on during Mend-It Monday hours each month. Perhaps you want to learn to repair a fallen hem or reattach a button. Maybe you want to try your hand at visible mending techniques to cover a snag or hole. Have you decided that its time to learn how to iron? We can help you with that, too!

Additional Mend-It Monday sessions will be held February 10, March 17, April 14, and May 12.

Join us: Tuesday, Jan 21 from 3-4 PM.

Location: first floor Vogel Library booth seating

Guest speakers shared big ideas with our campus on MLK Day. Let's gather to share key takeaways, connect with like-minded community members, and wrap our minds around ways we can work together to improve our community.

Snacks will be provided.

Join us: Tuesday, Jan 28 from 2:45-3:45 PM.
