With 1 in 5 students living with a diagnosable mental health condition, it is important to openly address this often uncomfortable topic and work toward ending the stigma. Students and others on campus are invited to share personal experiences about living with mental illness, the misunderstandings they've encountered about their condition, and the importance of seeking assistance. Panelists for this discussion include the new director of Student Wellness Mark Rowe-Barth, professor of psychology David Vogel, and Student Counseling Services psychologist Kristen Sievert. Distinguished Professor of Psychology Gary Wells will facilitate the discussion
