October 5, 2025 at 8:21 PMApprovedSOMA Sweet Tooth SocialSOMA10/05/202510/30/2025SOMA is excited to announce the SOMA Sweet Tooth Social! After speaking with Dr. Ferretti, we’re thrilled to bring her incredible idea to life: collaborating with local bakeries in Erie to showcase a variety of cultural desserts. This event will provide students with the chance to not only try delicious treats from local bakeries but also learn about the cultural backgrounds behind these baked goods. For just $5, students will receive a ticket to sample 3 desserts, while also getting the opportunity to socialize and connect with others. This is a fantastic way to support local businesses, celebrate cultural diversity, and bring the student community together! Through collaboration with Dr. Ferretti, who has contacted Mr. Dupree, there will be coffee and tea provided by the school as well as a table arrangement for the event. I have been advised by Ms. Spinazzola to submit this form with this note.
April 2, 2021 at 9:46 PMApprovedVirtual Guided Meditation Event with Dr. HendryxSOMA04/02/202104/26/2021SOMA hopes to host a virtual guided meditation facilitated by Dr. Hendryx. This event will occur over Zoom in order to keep it as safe as possible. The event will be open to SOMA members, however, we are currently working with SAAO to potentially collaborate for this event, and in this case the event will also be open to SAAO members. We will all join the Zoom link and after a brief introduction by SOMA’s OPP director, Dr. Hendryx will lead us in a guided meditation. SOMA will send out a poll to members to see what date will work best for the most students using the dates Dr. Hendryx already approved. A date the week of April 26th - taking place completely virtually on the Zoom platform. SOMA wants to create a COVID-safe opportunity for students to experience this facet of OPP, and see how we can better implement this practice into our day-to-day lives. This is a great opportunity to learn a skill we were taught in OPP that we may not have tried out before and can hopefully inspire to students to further look into the other facets of integrative medicine we learned about during OPP lectures.
