Developing Holistic Approaches: Exploring Sexual Violence at the Intersection...healthycampuses
This Deep Dive Session was held at the 2016 Healthy Minds | Healthy Campuses Summit. Participants considered the intersections of two pressing issues on post-secondary campuses: sexual violence and mental health. Working from the Framework for Post-Secondary Student Mental Health, participants engaged in a broader discussion around these issues, as well as discussions regarding education, skill building, services and support. This session offered opportunities to learn from existing work that has been done in these areas and to think through new possibilities for campus awareness campaigns, the integration of mental health frameworks into policies and procedures, and broader shifts in campus culture.

I delivered a short workshop to a team from West Sussex PCT. This included people with a range of roles, including IT, Digital Engagement, Mental Health and Governance, and followed up a similar session with the Communications Team a month beforehand. It seemed to be well-received - the evaluation questionnaire that will follow will show me how well I read the room!
The Joneses: Communication Networks to Do Your Dirty WorkTonya Oaks Smith
Keeping up with the Joneses… That idea is an integral part of selling anything – whether it's a car or a spot in an upcoming freshman class.
We all know that we have to have conversations with our audiences and more importantly listen, but why is this approach so important? Does this engagement approach directly oppose the traditional idea of marketing our wares? Do folks actually listen to what we have to say when we tweet, Facebook, email? How do we engage them – and convince them to do what we want?
The answer is often not in how we engage, but in how we help communication networks develop. In this session, you'll learn the characteristics of a strong communication network and of great opinion leaders as well as what communication behaviors individuals bring to social media. Finally, you'll find out best practices for engaging with opinion leaders and how to *use* them wisely.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.
