On Air With Student Affairs
Season 2 Episode 19
May is Mental Health Awareness Month — and this episode, we’re here to remind you that no Aggie has to struggle alone. There is a network of support and care here at Texas A&M.
Host Elizabeth Drake sits down with the Student Assistance Services team inside Texas A&M’s Student Life department for an honest conversation about the mental health challenges college students face and the resources that exist to help them through it.
Student Assistance Services serves as a landing place for Aggies who may need a hand up, but aren’t sure where to turn. Think of them as problem solvers who help make a university of 80,000 feel a little smaller, whether you’re dealing with financial stress, relationship struggles, academic overwhelm or something you can’t quite put into words yet.
The team breaks down the real signs that it might be time to reach out, tackles the stigma that keeps too many students suffering in silence, and explains what actually happens when you walk through their door for the first time & more.
It’s okay to not be okay, and Student Assistance Services is here to help you figure out the next step.
