Thanks @graemedblair for sharing. We hope this study makes people feel less isolated. Your story helps.
Respondents say that what you're doing (wellbeing check-ins) is important. We'd love to hear from students and faculty about what works and doesn't with these check-ins.

After twenty years of research on the subject, I thought I knew a lot about Indian village democracy - but this...wow.... this is something else 👇🏾

What happens when a private company gets to rule a village? An example from a corporate utopia in Kerala, where laws are malleable, personal autonomy is at times a luxury, but giveaways and goodies exist like nowhere else! livemint.com/news/india/insi…
