Announcing the first meeting of the Graduate Student Mental Health working group

Graduate students from the Department of Sociology, with a little help from The University Graduate School, are forming a working group to address mental health issues amongst our graduate student population at IU. 

FIRST MEETING: 
Monday, March 29, 2010
IMU Dogwood Room, 2pm
Welcome remarks by Dean James Wimbush.
Open to all.

Group members will meet periodically throughout the semester to:

 -  Catalogue current mental health resources that target graduate student needs
 -  Identify limitations and brainstorm solutions/strategies for rectifying these deficiencies
 -  Poll graduate students about what mental health needs are most pressing at IU

We hope you are enthusiastic about improving graduate student mental health at Indiana University and encourage all interested students to respond.

TO JOIN: email iugradschool@gmail.com and we'll send you an invitation to the web site / mailing list.
