Thriving Beyond Campuses: The impact of mental bandwidth depletion on student mental health and well-being


Vancouver Campus | 4:00pm–4:00pm

The impact of mental bandwidth depletion on student mental health and well-being

Keynote speaker: Cia Verschelden

For many of our students, the cognitive resources for learning are being diminished by the negative effects of poverty, as well as discrimination and hostility against groups marginalized on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, and other aspects. Due to the pandemic and social unrest, uncertainty — which is at the core of all bandwidth depletion — is significantly affecting our students’ capacity to learn and our own capacity to do our work and maintain well-being.
