Make a Statement
Your syllabus can be a wellbeing tool. Add a mental health statement to share resources and make mental health feel more approachable to talk about.
Here's Our Recommended Statement
Wellbeing Statement
As a student, you may experience stressors that impact your academic career and personal well-being. These can include but are not limited to, academic pressure, mental and emotional health, challenges associated with relationships, alcohol or drug misuse, identities, financial challenges, etc.
Pay attention to your personal signs that you’re overly stressed, like changes in your mood, appetite, sleep, behavior, or new physical symptoms (aches, pains, etc.) that interfere with school and daily life. If you or a friend is struggling, we strongly encourage you to seek support. Seeking help is a courageous thing to do for yourself as your well-being is important. The University of Arizona offers multiple resources to promote your well-being and success as an individual. If you are struggling with this class, please visit during office hours or contact me by email.
