Sometimes we need to step out the classroom. Learning outside, using our bodies, seeking new experiences with new people. Don’t let the University keep you chained to your chairs! Learning with joy is always better.

What kinds of relational practices connect us to the more-than-human world? How can education be about healing rather than harm? How can we think about being “decolonial” on stolen land? Here’s Elli Weisbaum, who teaches in the BPMH program, with a land acknowledgement to begin each class.
