Join the Global Affairs Center for a symposium on the state of the relationship between Cuba and the U.S. today led by Marc McLeod, Director, Latin American Studies and Associate Professor of History at Seattle University. This FREE event is happening Thurs., Oct. 29 at 7 p.m. in the PUB Quiet Dining Room.
On December 17, 2014, an agreement between the United States and Cuba, popularly called “The Cuban Thaw”, brokered in part by Canada and Pope Francis, began the process of restoring international relations between Cuba and the United States. On April 14, 2015, the Obama Administration announced that it would remove Cuba from the American government’s list of nations which sponsor terrorism. Shortly thereafter, Cuba and the U.S. reached a deal to reopen embassies in their respective capitals on July 20, 2015, and reestablish diplomatic relations. “Normal relations,” including fully lifting the U.S. commercial and financial embargo on Cuba, as well as allowing unrestricted travel to Cuba, are still being discussed. The United States naval base at Guantánamo Bay stands out as a particularly intractable issue in the renewed relationship.
Join us for a discussion of issues at the heart of this historic rapprochement between the two states with Marc McLeod, Director, Latin American Studies and Associate Professor of History, Seattle University. Click here for more information about Marc McLeod.

Understanding Anxiety
Wednesday, October 28, 2015
12:30 pm in the PUB, room 9201
Anxiety isn’t always a bad thing. In fact, a little anxiety can motivate you and help you stay focused under pressure, such as when taking an exam or driving your car on a dark and stormy night. However, when anxiety takes over and interferes with daily activities, there may be cause for concern. The good news – recovery is possible and there are many things you can do to get your anxiety in check and regain control of your life.
Join Counseling Services at our interactive workshop and learn more about how to recognize and manage the signs and symptoms of anxiety for yourself or someone you care about.
Workshop is open to all and no RSVP needed. Hope you can make it!

In honor of Disability Employment Awareness Month, the Office of Special Services (OSS) is working to raise awareness of disabilities by offering a movie screening of FIXED.
FIXED Mon., Oct. 26 from 1-3 p.m. (movie is 60 minutes, with a discussion afterwards for those who can stay) in room 1504.
What is FIXED about??
A haunting, subtle, urgent documentary, FIXED questions commonly held beliefs about disability and normalcy by exploring technologies that promise to change our bodies and mind forever. Told primarily through the perspectives of five people with disabilities: a scientist, journalist, disability justice educator, bionics engineer and exoskeleton test pilot, FIXED takes a close look at the implications of emerging human enhancement technologies for the future of humanity.
Check out the trailer here.
Please contact the Office of Special Services if you have questions or would like to schedule a discussion of the topic or a showing of the movie in your class.
