Title: Tools to Help Students of Color Survive - Who May Feel Like a Fly in a Bowl of Milk. Alone.
Lead Presenter: Susan Carr
Date: October 02, 2018    Time: 4:30 pm - 5:30 pm
Room: N 227 A
Abstract: According to a 2015 'First-Year College Experience' survey, students of color feel overwhelmed, hopeless, struggle with feeling academically or emotionally unprepared, mental health issues, micro-aggressions, and are less comfortable seeking help compared to their white counterparts. When they don't feel supported or connected their hopes and dreams are dashed. Some feel like a fly in a bowl of milk. Alone. They give up. They drop out. The mental health crisis of students of color can't be overlooked. Many counselors are often untrained to deal with stresses from issues related to a student's culture, ethnicity or race. Learn how to empower these students with non-therapeutic tools and help those who feel isolated in your school community.
