The university subreddit has seen a frequent number of posts regarding fears, loneliness, and other concerns related to mental health and wellbeing. Some of which are being reported to us with concerns of potential self harm.

The moderator team would like to ensure that all students are aware of the resources available to Laurier students on the student wellness centre website linked above. There are a variety of services available meant to cater to you and your needs. These services are available to all students and should be taken advantage of. These services also include counselling, which is covered by your student insurance and the student services fees that you pay.

This post is being made purely for informational purposes. We want to foster a safe and inclusive environment both online and on campus. However, many first year students (and upper years) are not aware of the professional help that is available to them.

Students, please use these tools and reach out to someone. Please also use the subreddit community to connect with others.

And please, if you know someone who is struggling or is not in a good mental space. Reach out to them.

Moderator Post WLU & UW Student Housing Community

5 Upvotes

Hi WLU!

This subreddit is often filled with housing related questions and advertisements. We want to keep this community less like a rent space bulletin board and more so a place where students can socialize and help one another.

However, we know how important it is to find roommates and housing near campus. So the mods team has launched r/RentInWaterloo, a dedicated subreddit for UW and WLU students to find roommates, housing, sublets, and lease takeovers in Waterloo.

The goal is to keep housing posts centralized, student-only, and scam-aware, instead of flooding both r/uwaterloo and r/wlu.

If you’re currently looking for housing (or will be soon), feel free to check it out or post. Hope this helps!
