The Working Mothers Affinity Group offers faculty and staff a unique perspective for ways to balance work and family life while building relationships and promoting a culture of leadership in the Syracuse University community. Join us for our next meeting, Wednesday, June 23 in the Schine Student Center, Room 233 from noon to 1 p.m., to discuss summer vacations and area attractions for our families to visit. Feel free to bring your lunch to the meeting.
Affinity Groups are voluntary, employee-initiated groups of SU faculty and staff that share common interests, issues, backgrounds, characteristics or pursuits. Affinity Groups enhance feelings of connectedness and provide opportunities for employees to seek and offer support to one another.
