Graduate Student Mental Health Initiative
by Samuel Day 02 Oct '19

02 Oct '19

Hi all, The University of Manitoba Grad Student Association is looking for input from graduate students regarding mental health and the related services that are available on campus. The Vice President Academic, Roxie Koohgoli, has provided us with a list of topics to reflect on: 1. What they currently know about general mental health 2. How they deal with mental health 3. Concerns about resources available to them 4. Negative and positive things which effect their mental health 5. Things that they would like to see changed by the university 6. Anything else that falls underneath the mental health spectrum The confidentiality of your response will of course be respected, so if you have any thoughts or opinions you might like the UMGSA to hear regarding any of these topics feel free to email them directly to Roxie at <vpa(a)umgsa.org>. Cheers, Sam
