Vice President for Student Affairs
- In partnership with the Student Wellness Center, it’s time again to sign up to raise funds and awareness for the Out of the Darkness Campus Walk supported by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP). Money raised by UT Dallas walking teams will be used toward suicide prevention efforts here in North Texas, to raise awareness about mental health resources, and to create unity among the Comet family and local communities. There’s no fee or fundraising requirement to attend, but individuals who raise $250 and teams that raise $500 by March 20 will have their name added to the back of the event T-shirt, and if you raise $100 or more by then, you’ll get a free T-shirt. Fundraising, if you choose to do so, can continue until May 29, one month past the walk date. The UTD walk is planned for Saturday, April 29, 10:30 a.m.-noon beginning on the SU Mall/Plinth. To join our team, visit the AFSP website, then select “Register Now” and enter your contact information. Next select “Join a Team” and search for UT Dallas Student Affairs. Once you’ve registered, you can share the walk website and the link with anyone interested in donating to the cause! Contact Kacey Sebeniecher with questions.
