Building Resilience Through Mind-Body Bridging® Workshops

Workshop/Training

Life can be pretty tough sometimes. Why is it that some people can go through really rough times and still bounce back? The difference is that those who bounce back have resilience. Resilience is our ability to adapt successfully in the face of stress, trauma, or adversity and then bounce back to our normal state of functioning and well-being. The good news is that resilience isn't something you're born with or not. The skills of resilience can be learned.

This 4-session Building Resilience Program will provide you with skills to increase resilience during and after stressful life events, improve general well-being and enhance performance in demanding activities such as academics and sports. Research indicates that increased resilience can positively affect school and life outcomes for students, including academic achievement.

This program will introduce you to Mind-Body Bridging, an evidence-based practice that reduces distress and builds resilience. You’ll learn skills to increase awareness of your body, thoughts, and emotions, recognize unhelpful patterns, and reframe experiences to unlock your full potential.

6:00 pm - 7:00 pm | Online/Virtual |

FSQ at USU 2025-26 Series: The Crossing Point

Arts/Entertainment

The Long Arc

Program:
W.A. Mozart | StringQuartet in E-flat Major, K. 428
Leoš Janácek | String Quartet No. 1 “Kreutzer Sonata”
Ludwig van Beethoven | String Quartet in C-sharp minor, Op. 131

The final concert of the season reaches back—not as escape, but as remembrance.

These works span classical elegance, psychological rupture, and transcendent modernity. Mozart offers luminous clarity. Janácek brings stormy, uncontained passion. And Beethoven’s late quartet stands like a mountain at the edge of time—defiant, searching, and radiant with radical tenderness.

Together, this program honors the lineage of the string quartet as a space of intensity and transformation. These composers, in their own eras, were each asking: What is possible within four voices?

The Fry Street Quartet asks the same.

This concert roots the season in resonance, community, and the long arc of wisdom through sound.

Tanner Talk with Dustin Edwards: Data in the Desert: Locating Digital Damage in Time, Place, and Culture

Lecture/Readings | Tanner Talks

Dr. Edwards is a digital rhetoric scholar who attends to the material, infrastructural, and, increasingly, geological dimensions of rhetoric. In particular, his scholarly monograph Enduring Digital Damage: Rhetorical Reckonings for Planetary Survival (published by University of Alabama Press) articulates and performs a story-based approach that accounts for the entangled damages (ecological, climatic, colonial) of large-scale digital infrastructures. Following digital damage to two places in New Mexico (a Meta data center in Los Lunas and a copper mine in Grant County), the project examines how digital rhetoric is intimately woven to extractive industries. The stories of “the digital” told throughout the book unfold along multiple, often unexpected, threads: water rights, climate patterns, chronic illnesses, forced relocations, species extinctions, conditions of environmental racism, and much more. Yet, by posing the question of what happens after damage, the book also amplifies stories of refusal, resistance, and brilliant invention that insist this world can be otherwise. Event is open to Statewide via Zoom. Please register here: https://usu.zoom.us/meeting/register/xbttuxRPSTWRkCGXGDG9Sg

Science Unwrapped - Microplastic Taxis for Microbes

Special Event | Science Unwrapped

Inquiring minds of all ages are invited to Science Unwrapped, the free, public outreach program of USU's College of Arts and Sciences. Our events begin with a brief presentation, and are followed by hands-on learning activities and refreshments. At our February 20 event: Plastics are everywhere in our modern world, providing convenience for packaging, clothing, furnishings, infrastructure and the many consumer products that make our lives easier. But plastic waste, which breaks down into small particles, is making its way into our air, soils, water, food – and into our bodies – all of which can harm our health and environment. USU environmental engineers Akib Al Mahir and Joanna (Liyuan) Hou are studying how microplastics interact with varied microbes in wastewater. Some of these microbes are beneficial and can break down microplastics. Others are harmful to humans and the environment. Akib and Joanna are exploring how microplastics behave like “tiny Uber drivers” that can transport microbes in ways that are helpful and not helpful.
