All students planning to conduct research off campus are encouraged to attend a workshop on fieldwork safety -- preventing and navigating sexual harassment and assault in field settings. The workshop is run by FieldFutures, and there will be two identical, 90-minute sessions at 10:00 and 1:00 at ZSR Room 204. 

Interested students, staff, and faculty can register for one (not both) of the workshops here. Questions are directed to Dr. Tim Gitzen: gitzent@wfu.edu
