What We've Learned - UC San Diego Student Affairs

SPRING QUARTER 2023

Weeks 7-8: Third season SZN edition.

Greetings, WWL-ers!

With just a fortnight between now and finals week (sorry for the reminder), you’re reading the penultimate edition of your favorite newsletter’s third season… but unlike our fellow punsmith Ted Lasso, we’ll be back for a fourth.

Here's What We’ve Learned since the last time we clinched your inboxes.

Enjoy, be safe, and stay kind to one another. - Ian

Happy Half-oween, witches!

Join us tomorrow night at the Epstein Family Amphitheater for Scream Qweenz: Halfway to Halloween, a free-for-students drag show that promises to bring “the undead slayage” (their words) – courtesy of more-than-a dozen performers with fiercely clever, Autumn-adjacent stage names.

Sincerely,
Jill O’Lantern

Let’s talk, more rock.

Intrigued by the idea of chatting with a mental health professional but don’t know where to start? As part of CAPS’ no-cost Let's Talk program, counselors offer informal, one-on-one sessions that aim to provide practical strategies, resource information, and support for your overall well-being.

Less ‘Tok, more talk. Instead of doom scrolling when something’s got you down, spend 20-25 minutes in consultation with a pro who’ll truly listen to your problems and explore solutions – not distractions.

No wait? Yes way. Peruse their schedule of sessions and specialties for each day of the week. Although they’re first-come, first-served – there’s typically no wait for an appointment.

The Big West was won!
We’ve renamed this section in honor of the UC San Diego baseball team, who recently clinched a share of the 2023 Big West Baseball Championship in just their third season of DI competition.

Trophy life.
Come celebrate the Tritons’ first-ever Big West title at a trophy presentation on Weds. May 31 in PC Plaza, where you can take photos with the trophy, hear from members of the team, and get some free swag to commemorate this historic accomplishment.
