Activities

At the McCombs Leadership Program, we emphasize the importance of building a well-rounded individual who can work with others to build a better community. Whether you are a student moving from middle to high school, or from high school to college, it is important to take care of your mental well-being. In this event, we will discuss mental health tips and how to identify and deal with mental fatigue, especially in periods of transition. Hear from current UT students and learn how the McCombs Leadership Program supports its members to build community.
