Dear students,
A new semester often brings both excitement and a fair share of challenges. Between settling into your classes and finding your rhythm again, it is easy to forget to pause and take care of yourself. To support you through the start of the semester, the University Counselling Centre has prepared a series of workshops and activities this October that can help you recharge, learn something new, or simply take a mindful break.
Take a look at the overview of activities we have planned for you in October:
