DESCRIPTION:Based on the bestselling book “At the Wolf’s Table” by I
 talian author Rosella Postorino\, THE TASTERS follows a group of women who
  were recruited by the SS in 1943 to make sure that the food being served 
 to Hitler was not poisoned. Forced to eat what might kill them\, the taste
 rs start to split into two factions: those loyal to Hitler and those who i
 nsist they aren’t Nazis\, even as they risk their lives everyday for the
  Führer.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHY WE LIKE THIS FILM: In 2012\, at the age 
 of 95\, shortly before her death\, a woman named Margot Wölk revealed tha
 t she had been one of the young German women forced to taste Hitler’s me
 als. No one had ever known about the existence of the food tasters. Margot
  Wölk was the only one among them to survive the end of the war. Her stor
 y inspired both the novel and the film. Although the Jewish content isn’
 t immeidately obvious\, it becomes revealed towards the end of the movie.

 			\n				\n									AUSTIN – From helping students succeed in the classr
 oom to supporting disaster recovery\, expanding access to healthcare\, str
 engthening local nonprofits\, and revitalizing public lands\, AmeriCorps V
 olunteers will continue to power service in communities across the state t
 hanks to $29.3 million in AmeriCorps funding awarded to Texas. This federa
 l investment will be matched with $57.6 million in local and private funds
 . Administered by OneStar Foundation\, this investment will support 37 pro
 grams and engage 2\,775 AmeriCorps Volunteers\, who will serve more than 2
 .9 million hours across the state in the year ahead. Through partnerships 
 with nearly 700 schools\, clinics\, shelters\, local governments\, nonprof
 its\, and faith-based organizations\, AmeriCorps Volunteers will help meet
  urgent community needs while gaining hands-on experience\, developing pro
 fessional skills\, and exploring career pathways in high-impact fields. Am
 eriCorps is a powerful workforce engine for Texas. AmeriCorps Volunteers r
 eceive a living allowance\, health care\, and childcare during their servi
 ce. At the end of their term\, they earn a Segal AmeriCorps Education Awar
 d—worth a combined $12.7 million statewide this year—to pay for colleg
 e\, pursue vocational training\, or to repay student loans. Individuals in
 terested in serving can visit AmeriCorps.gov/Serve to search and apply for
  AmeriCorps positions in Texas. “AmeriCorps is one of the most effective
  solutions we have for meeting community needs while helping people build 
 the skills\, confidence\, and experience that shape their future careers\,
 ” said Chris Bugbee\, OneStar President & CEO. “Across Texas\, AmeriCo
 rps Volunteers are supporting students\, families\, disaster survivors\, p
 ublic lands\, and local organizations while developing real-world leadersh
 ip and professional skills. This investment strengthens communities today 
 and creates workforce pathways that prepare Texans for a lifetime of servi
 ce and impact.” Funding has been awarded to the following 28 Texas organ

SUMMARY:"Shy Longhorns Society" SHARE Community Meeting

CATEGORIES:community
DESCRIPTION:Are you shy\, introverted or socially anxious? All of the abov
 e? No worries. At a campus as big as UT\, it can be difficult to be shy an
 d make meaningful connections and friendships. At the Shy Longhorns Societ
 y\, we come together to create a community built upon support and validati
 on for the struggles of being socially anxious or shy at UT. We remind eac
 h other that we are not alone and come up with ways to overcome our diffic
 ulties together.\n\nNote: This is not a replacement for clinical mental he
 alth services.\n\n \n\nSHARE Communities are weekly student-led groups whe
 re peers with similar interests\, concerns\, or wellness goals can find co
 mmunity and social connection that goes beyond surface-level. They are pla
 ces to step away from the grind and let down the mask\, where mutual suppo
 rt\, imperfection\, and “real” conversations are the expectation rathe
 r than the exception. We aim to give fellow students a place to be themsel
 ves and feel at home\, where their resources and inner wisdom can directly
  benefit others going through similar struggles.\n\n \n\nINTEREST FORM:htt
 ps://utexas.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cHkrALQmhasSUMm\n\n \n\nAny UT stude
 nt may submit an interest form and attend ANY open SHARE Community at ANY 
 time of the semester. Submitting an interest form is not a commitment\, ju
 st an introduction to connect you with our peer facilitators!
