Unlikely Friendships: Shared Space Across Faith Traditions

For our third interview of The PARK series on "Unlikely Friendships" we turn to two incredible staff members who are part of the Penn Religious Communities Council out of the Office of the Chaplain. Megan LeCluyse and Patty Anton. Megan LeCluyse is an ordained Presbyterian minister and heads up the Christian Association, while Patty Anton is a chaplain to the Muslim Student Association. They both support students who share their own spiritual beliefs and traditions, yet Megan, as a Christian and Patty as a Muslim do not share the same religious beliefs. As you will hear in the conversation, they share space, both housing their religious communities within the same space over at the Christian Association. This shared space has fostered a friendship where they have come to many profound realizations. One of them is that they actually have similar roles in students’ lives. Because of this Patty and Megan are able to support each other as they have very proximate knowledge about what it means to be women religious leaders serving students at Penn. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Unlikely Friendships: Connections within the College House System

In our second interview in the series, we are joined by Penn Senior, psychology major in the College Maddie McGregor and recent Penn graduate from the College Class of ’21 Cognitive Science major and Computer Science minor, Fawad Syed. Fawad was Maddie’s RA in Ware College House in the spring of 2020 when the pandemic hit. Even though their time being together in person was truncated, they were able to develop a strong friendship that continues to contribute to their wellbeing. They have several other differences, yet they have been able maintain a strong and authentic connection that transcends these differences. Fawad and Maddie have very interesting things to say about Penn’s culture that go beyond their particular friendship. We can learn larger lessons about friendship from their compassionate insights in this conversation. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Unlikely Friendships: Identity and Difficult Conversations

What does it look like to develop a friendship with someone who may be different from you? In some way? Does it cause you to grow socially and intellectually? And if so, how? For our very first interview in the "Unlikely Friendship" series, we are joined by Penn Seniors in the College, Laila Shadid and David Garnick. Here, they explain their friendship to us, why it is unlikely, and what they have learned from each other. By bravely entering into hard conversations. They are wise and kind, and though they are describing their particular friendship, there are many larger lessons that can be gleaned about how friendship contributes to our well-being. If you are a member of the Penn community in an Unlikely Friendship and would like to be considered for an interview on The PARK, submit your friendship here.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
