Over 40% of graduate students report feeling anxiety or depression at some point in their studies. This time of the year/semester can be particularly stressful. With exams and deadlines coming up, it is important to be aware of your mental (and physical) health so that you can perform at a high level and minimize setbacks.

Join us today at 5 p.m. in CTRE 152A for the Graduate Student Stress Management Seminar. Dr. Emily Anderson will be leading the discussion and pizza will be served. We hope to see you there!

Attention Graduate students. Interested in contacting your state representatives and senators? Follow these links below for contact information.

Best thing to make sure your voice is heard is to give them a call. Be prepared to say what you want to say. Be kind and respectful. Let them know how passing either the House (this bill includes reclassifying tuition waivers as income) or the Senate Tax bill will affect you personally and as one of their constituents you do not want them to support these bills.
