WellU Wednesday Unfinishing School

Forget outdated lessons and unspoken rules: it's time to unlearn and relearn. UnFinishing School is a session led by Sexual Health Educator Kris Carlson and offered by Student Health and Wellness, Pride Central, and the Gender Equity Center. This session flips the script on traditional sex ed, helping students navigate consent, communication, and relationships on their own terms. We’ll explore how to set boundaries, express desires, and challenge gender norms in a fun and inclusive space.
