This presentation will highlight the stories of individuals from the MIT community who have found a sense of purpose and meaning in the midst of emotional or physical hardship. Dr. Jackson will speak about the evolution of his photo essay, Portraits of Resilience,
which was born following a spate of suicides on the MIT campus in 2015, and from his wish to capture the stories of those who have overcome mental health challenges. The purpose of this seminar is to leave you with a sense of hope, connectedness, and inspiration.</p>

goals. Come here the point-counterpoint, moderated by Paul Michelman, editor in chief of MIT Sloan Management Review. Admission is FREE. Register now as we expect this event to fill quickly.</p>

The MIT Cooking Group is open for all the MIT community. For those who love and have a passion for food and cooking. Our members have a varied level of cooking skills, but we all share a common interest in learning about new dishes, making friends, and exploring
new cultures and techniques. We come together to share our culinary experiences and passion. This group is led by Katerina Vinichenko. Every Friday two members volunteer to prepare the main course and a dessert, while the rest help with the preparation of
the dishes and with the cleaning afterwards, or by playing with the kids (we are a kids frendly group).</p>

We meet at the Penthouse of Eastgate from 11am - 2pm. For each meeting you need to send an email to the coordinator so they can know how many people are coming to the meeting and the cookers can buy the ingredients accordingly. At the end we all share the recipes,
pictures and the cost of the ingredients for the food. If no volunteers sign up for a particular date, we will cancel the meeting. We welcome any member of the MIT community that has an interest in food and that would like to have a good time. You can find
us by email at: katerina.vinichenko@gmail.com or on Facebook: MIT Cooking Group.</p>

Sun Yeo. She has lived in the U.S. for over ten years, and she is currently tutoring beginners in English at English at Large and co-facilitating an English conversation group there as well. Sun knows the difficulties of expressing one self's in English after

discuss them together. Children are welcome, although if your child is having a particularly sad or noisy day that might disrupt the group, please consider attending without your child, if possible.
