AI isn’t your friend. Definitely not your therapist.

Research of the top 11 AI chatbots in the journal Science reveals that these chatbots are designed to keep you engaging with them not to make you a better, happier person. They don’t challenge you or help you to identify how you can make your relationships better by assessing and perhaps changing your own behavior and attitudes.

Racial and Social Justice are Mental Health Needs

We recognize students may seek Mental Health Resources for Students Impacted by Racial Injustice. We wish to express our grief, sorrow and compassion to students hurting due to race-based tragedies occurring across our nation.

We are committed to affirming and providing care for our students who have been directly or vicariously impacted by trauma caused by racism, bigotry, prejudice and indifference. We assert that there is no true mental health where there is systemic inequity and hatred.
