Sinclair has Bleed Kits located throughout campus locations. In the event of a critical incident (e.g., active shooter) understanding what is in them could be lifesaving.
If the choice is made to render aid this presentation will assist in understanding what is contained in these kits, and some uses for them.
This does not constitute medical training, and no one is required to act in an emergency.
Goals of the presentation:
Join us for a tour of Sinclair grounds with Ed Toscani. From caring for plants and trees to moving snow and corralling leaves, there is a lot of work taking place and being done by the Grounds Department staff as they keep the outside of our campus looking great year-round.
Meet on the plaza outside Building 7 near the Fountain.
Sinclair LINC: Listen, Intersect, Network, Connect is an opportunity for Sinclair employees to meet other employees. Participants meet with another employee for a 10-minute conversation; then pairs will switch several times during the hour-long session. You could talk with someone you have known for a long time or you might meet someone new but you will have a chance to listen and be heard, network, intersect and connect.
Join us for a short walk around the Dayton campus area. We'll start walking about 12:15 and finish by 12:45 to give you time to arrive and time to get to your 1 pm event.
Bring your proper walking gear, consider your health risks for an activity like this and participants are responsible for themselves, any accidents or other injuries as a result of walking.
Have you heard the department name, AJT, and wondered what it stands for and who they serve. AJT stands for Advanced Job Training and provides education for students who are incarcerated. Join us to learn more about this growing group of students and the staff and faculty who serve them.
Join us for an opportunity to work on your needle projects and meet others who also enjoy stitching. Crafters using needles and stitches such as knitting, crochet, needlepoint, embroidery, sewing, quilting, cross stitch, punch needle, lacemaking, applique and more are welcome. If you are new to crafting and would like to learn more or if you have years of experience or anywhere in between, come to learn more or share your expertise.
Join us for an in-person showing of the pre-recorded SpeakOut Ed Talk by scholar and author, Dr. Anthony Ocampo. Immigration, race, and LGBTQ+ rights have been headline issues, yet the experiences of those whose identities include all three are often invisible. Dr. Ocampo discusses the struggles of LGBTQ+ people of color to be seen, not just by the public, but also by their immigrant families, ethnic communities, and the mainstream gay community.
Dr. Ocampo zeros in on Latinx and Asian gay men and looks at how schools in particular are racialized, gendered, and heteronormative and the implications intersectional identities hold for understanding educational inequalities. A discussion immediately following the video, facilitated by Lajmar Anderson, Archives & Reference Librarian, Sinclair College.

Hate in America has become commonplace.

This discussion, facilitated by Tennille Love-Frost, Regional Center Advising Generalist, focuses on the importance of one’s name because it distinguishes us from others, establishes our own uniqueness and identities, reflects our cultures, and honors our families and heritage. Therefore, as education professionals we must be intentional in correctly pronouncing and spelling someone’s name. It is not just respectful, but is also vital to ensuring they are seen, acknowledged, and valued for who they are as a unique individual!

David Sinclair, General Secretary of the Dayton Y.M.C.A., knew that vocational education was essential to meeting the needs of a rapidly advancing job market. His motto “Find the need and endeavor to meet it” was continually practiced by what would become Sinclair College and encouraged more equitable solutions into the 20th century.
In this virtual presentation, Sinclair Archivist & Records Manager, Shelby Beatty, will highlight David Sinclair and college growth to meet community needs. She will also discuss women’s involvement, their commitment to the community, and how they helped shape our modern institution.

In the years leading up to the Civil war, Ohio had more African American settlements than any other state. Owing to a common border with several slave states, it became a destination for people of color seeking to separate themselves from slavery. Despite these communities having populations that sometimes numbered in the hundreds, little is known, about most of them, and by the beginning of the twentieth century, nearly all had lost their ethnic identities as the original settlers died off and their descendants moved away. Save for scattered cemeteries and an occasional house or church, they have all but been erased from Ohio’s landscape.
David Meyers is co-author of the book Historic Black Settlements of Ohio and will discuss how a number of these settlements came into being, and the factors that led to their disappearance.
