吃瓜爆料

Jennifer Schmid-Fareed works as the Skidmore Mindfulness program coordinator and the administrative assistant for MDOCS.  

As organizer of the Mindfulness program, she leads guided meditation groups twice a week and teaches yoga classes on Saturdays and Sundays. The free programs are geared toward students but are also open to faculty and staff.  

鈥淚n addition, I really enjoy creating larger events around Sound Healing,鈥� Schmid-Fareed says. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a great way for students to turn inward and relax.鈥�

As the administrative assistant for MDOCS, 鈥淚 mainly do whatever I can to support the incredible faculty and staff running the program,鈥� she says. 鈥淚t鈥檚 truly an absolute pleasure.鈥�

Schmid-Fareed joined Skidmore in November 2016 after managing a yoga retreat for more than 10 years. She joined MDOCS in January.

She enjoys hiking through North Woods and loves the College鈥檚 collaborative environment. 鈥淢y favorite thing about Skidmore is that I learn as much from the students as I do from my colleagues,鈥� she says.

When not on campus, Schmid-Fareed likes to practice yoga, draw and paint.
