The impacts of social isolation, sickness and death and other disruptions caused by COVID-19, necessitate conversations and recommendations around supporting students’ mental health. A panel consisting of a guest expert on mental health, the counseling center, a Lafayette student and a Lafayette faculty member will discuss these important issues with the community.
