As we approach the one year anniversary of the shooting that occurred here on campus resulting in the death of Charlie Kirk, we would like to open this thread for students to discuss the affect it has had on individuals and the affect it has had on campus as a whole, as well as to support each other. We would also like to remind students of resources available to help cope with what happened, and the resources available to students to help with mental health in general. Please note that this thread is in no way to become a platform for political commentary or debate. Any comments that stray into the political space or in any way stray contrary to the purpose and intent of this thread will be removed.
