Dear Carolina Community,

In a message to campus yesterday, I announced that tomorrow, Oct. 12, will be a Wellness Day for students and classes will be canceled. Tomorrow and throughout the week, we are offering a variety of resources to support our community. While recent events on campus this semester brought this mental health crisis and its impacts into sharp focus, please know that we are committed to providing sustainable support for our community beyond one day or week. We will continue to communicate with you about a variety of support systems in the coming weeks.
