     This panel discussion will feature the perspectives of current
     students as they share their diverse experiences of being a college
     student during the dual pandemics of COVID-19 and racial injustice.
     Panelists will consider how institutions can better support their
     mental health and wellbeing during the current climate, as well as
     what has been done successfully. We hope that this conversation
     will provide practical strategies and spark new ideas for supporting
     student mental health on any campus.
