At University Counseling Services (UCS), we recognize that the recent racist events on campus may negatively impact students’ psychological wellbeing. We also recognize that racial trauma is real and is an ongoing stressor for our students. Consistent with the university mission, UCS has a role in creating a safe and supportive environment for all university members to have an opportunity to express and process their thoughts, feelings, and reactions so that we all might pursue our best selves. If you find yourself experiencing significant distress, we invite you to seek individual and/or group conversations with us, either through intake or in meeting with our Emergency Clinical Services. Please come in (Gasson 001) or call us at 617-552- 3310.
