we encourage you to disrupt the idea of time scarcity, cherish the community we do have on campus, and respect your mental and physical health needs. as a community, many of us are wrapped up in the demands of institutional productivity and the pressures of academic expectations.Â
we covered up as many clocks as possible on campus with signs with the following messages:
take a deep breath
what you pay attention to grows
ask for an extension
your grades are not your worth
what is driving you?
how much is this assignment worth? In your life...
when i am happy, it is good for the world
there is always enough time for the right work
breathe.
you are capable
what brings you joy? How will you find it today?
connection is not a distraction. laughter is not unproductive.
you're allowed to have emotions
sleep can't be a last priority
take some space: outside, with movement... whatever you need.
pause to listen, listen to recenter.
why are you doing this work?
sleep can't be a last priority
take some space: outside, with movement... whatever you need.
pause to listen, listen to recenter.
