Virginia Woolf scholar Emily Kopley will present two lectures on Dec. 3 and 4 at WSU’s Holland and Terrell Libraries. Kopley describes Woolf’s personal library, the writer’s exploration of poetry, and the cover art of To the Lighthouse, inspired by Woolf’s 1902 edition of English poet William Wordsworth. Focusing on Woolf’s poetry titles, Kopley said these books help readers to understand Woolf’s attitude towards poetry, which she considered a rival and muse to her own form, the novel.

The Cannabis Research Seminar Series is funded through the WSU Center for Cannabis Policy, Research, and Outreach (CCPRO) and is intended to highlight some of the excellent cannabis research conducted within the WSU system.

Surveys show that up to three-quarters of people around the world are struggling from burnout. When you’re burned out, you feel it with every fiber of your being. Burnout is a devastating state of exhaustion, perceived incompetence, and detachment from others and your work, and strikes professionals and family caregivers alike. The stress of living in today’s high-pressure world, coupled with the fallout from the recent Covid pandemic, means that many of us are at the end of our rope. Fortunately, self-compassion can help you both prevent and recover from burnout. Self-compassion involves treating yourself with warmth, encouragement, and support when you’re stressed and overworked. A large body of research shows that self-compassion is one of the most powerful sources of strength, coping, and resilience we have available to cope with burnout. Dr. Kristin Neff, PhD
