Staff would have the option for their work to be posted in a mini gallery within the department hallways\, or kept for personal use only\, no sharing required.\nWhere: Zoom \nFlourish Hour is accessible to all faculty\, staff\, and trainees and these sessions are created to support department members in flourishing in their careers.
