  • Summary

  • Today’s guest is Dr. Benjamin Cheung, a professor in the department of Psychology at UBC. Ben joins me to talk about supporting students’ mental health and wellbeing from a faculty perspective. We talk about how he promotes social connection inside and outside the classroom, the role culture plays in instilling belonging and community, and ways to better support racialized students on campus. We also discuss the cultural barriers that deter students from accessing mental health services.
