The Falcons will be back in action tonight when they take on Detroit Mercy. The game will kick off at 7 at Cochrane Stadium. Admission to all soccer games is free.
2. Learn how to help a Falcon in crisis! Training Opportunity
Help create a Community of Care at BGSU and make sure no Falcon struggles unnoticed and alone! Start the Conversation is a collaborative training offered by the Counseling Center and the Humanities Troupe from the Department of Theatre and Film. In the training, you will learn how to contribute to a community of care, how to identify the warning signs of people who may be struggling, and how to help (including suicide prevention strategies). Simple expressions of care are powerful, and you can make a difference in someone's life!
The next training is Friday, from 3 to 4:30 p.m., BTSU 316. Register and learn more about how you can help create a community of care at BGSU!
3. Local History Publication Award Lecture Series begins next month
Please join the Center for Archival Collections in welcoming Judy Harris Szor to Jerome Library at 4 p.m. Oct. 21 for a presentation on the book Sam Szor: Toledo’s Mr. Music (The University of Toledo Press, 2020), co-winner of the CAC’s Local History Publication Award in the Independent Scholar Division.
Sam Szor’s legacy to northwest Ohio includes both his accomplishments and his continuous advocacy of music. Judy Harris Szor demonstrates how Sam Szor—a decades-long musician, educator, director, and conductor—connected people and music through high standards, entertainment, music selection, personal dedication, and the ability to inspire others to perform at their best.
