Stress and Mental Health Support
We all experience stressful and difficult events as a normal part of life, and sometimes we need help getting through challenging times. In college, you may experience academic stress, sleep problems, juggling responsibilities, life events, relationship concerns, or feelings of anxiety, hopelessness, or depression. As your instructor, I believe your mental health is an important part of your academic success. Recognize that stress is an expected part of the college experience, but it can be compounded by unexpected setbacks or life changes outside the classroom. If you or a friend is struggling, I strongly encourage you to seek support. You can always contact me, and there are also other free, helpful resources available on campus:
Academic Advising:
If you are experiencing academic stress or having difficulty with a course or a professor, please reach out to your academic advisor. Not sure who your advisor is? Use the Who is My Advisor? tool on the Academic Advising website.

Sex and Gender-based Discrimination (Title IX):
UAS students, faculty, staff, and visitors have the right to be free from all forms of gender and sex-based discrimination. UAS prohibits sexual harassment, sexual assault, other forms of sexual violence, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking. In the event of an act of prohibited conduct does occur, UAS will take steps to stop the behavior, prevent its recurrence, and provide remedies.
All employees at the University of Alaska Southeast, with the exception of UAS counselors and health care providers, are consider “responsible employees” and must share any reports of gender-based and sexual misconduct with the UAS Title IX Office. Students are encouraged to speak up and help end the silence surrounding sexual violence and harassment. there is more information on the Title IX Compliance page.
