- Working from home with your pet – ie , How do you avoid your dog barking during calls, etc.

With the fall semester just around the corner, we are excited to bring everyone together for one last summer Empower Hour! And what better topic to feature other than the amazing work that women have done throughout history to give us some motivation for approaching our own work this fall.
During this Empower Hour, we invite everyone to:
- Participate in some group herstory trivia
- Chat about the unsung heroines of UConn
- Discuss ways that the unsung heroine persona appears in our own work
- Share our excitement (and fears) about starting the fall semester
