Mental Health in Grad School
Back in November 2017, Perspectives devoted an issue to the theme of “Mental Health and Higher Ed,” with stories about managing mental health among faculty and students, both graduate and undergraduate. Conversations about mental health in the academy have only grown, and this month’s issue focuses more specifically on graduate education.
