University life can be busy and demanding — balancing classes, assignments, work, and personal commitments can quickly become overwhelming. Drop by to learn some practical strategies for managing time effectively, recognizing when you've taken on too much, and developing healthy ways to cope with stress. This event is offered collaboratively by Student Health and Wellness and the Student Success Centre as part of No Stigma November 

Need some fuel to start your day? You're invited to Breakfast Bar! Happening every Thursday from 9am - 11am, drop by to make your own breakfast, learn some low-cost and nutritious breakfast recipes and cost-saving strategies, and connect with peers. We will occasionally have special guests present to share information about timely topics. Breakfast will include toast and yogurt, both served with a variety of toppings that will rotate weekly. On occasion, we'll also have special feature items for you to try! This program is generously funded by Alumni and Friends through Lakehead's Food Security Committee. Offered in partnership by Student Health and Wellness, LUSU, and Lakehead International.

Student Health and Wellness is celebrating #NoStigmaNovember, a whole-campus initiative that aims to stop the stigma of struggling with mental health and normalize seeking help when needed. Stop by Simcoe Hall to learn about all the upcoming events and discover simple yet powerful ways to help reduce stigma and contribute to a supportive campus community.

Whether you're new to these conversations or looking to deepen your understanding, there's something here for everyone. Let's work together to Stop the Stigma—one conversation at a time.

This event is open to students, faculty and staff! Activities and information will include:

• Sign up for upcoming Stop the Stigma events

• Pick up some Stop the Stigma SWAG to demonstrate your commitment to reducing stigma

• Learn about how you can help Stop the Stigma in your classroom and work
