Pumpkin SMASH: Stop the STIGMA
The Student Mental Health Ambassadors collaborated with the Kappa Alpha Fraternity to promote a fun opportunity to stop the stigma around mental health. A guest lecture by the Director of the Counseling Center raised awareness about mental health issues in men, as well as college students. This event provided an opportunity for the campus community to come together to talk about the importance of mental health. More than 100 students came out to SMASH the stigma!
