Team BluEJay said they plan on “being proactive and not reactive” when it comes to student wellness.
Acknowledging the mental health impact of COVID-19, Team BluEJay wants to focus on helping students build support systems through initiatives like Con-Ed specific clubs and hangout groups that are a safe space to check in with each other.
Both teams are passionate about providing academic support and professional development opportunities.
Team BluEJay said it wants to collaborate with the psychology department in the Faculty of Arts and Science to create a half-year developmental psychology course focusing on psychology from the perspective of an educator. The team also mentioned plans to work closely with existing academic support services.
