A1. I am perched on the south campus of #UBC in #Vancouver, BC.

Alas, I am here to build a new home network, and not to go have tasty food (Vancouver is a #foodie destination.) But breakfast was Murchies tea + ginger thins, and I was given comfort foods this evening: Panago Pizza delivery.

If you were on UBC campus today, you might have seen or at least heard the engineers as they continued their carolling tradition. My eldest was keeping the beat for everyone... #UBC #UBCEngineers #UBCEUS

"Early #research from the #University of British Columbia suggests that when #Jewish #students experience increases in #antisemitism-related #stress—even week to week—their #depressive #symptoms also rise. The same pattern holds for stress tied to the #Israel–#Palestine conflict itself.

The study, led by former #UBC student Talia Morstead and #psychology #professor Anita DeLongis, followed 253 #Jewishstudents at 108 institutions through weekly surveys from January to mid-May 2024. It found that students who coped by withdrawing—avoiding conversations, avoiding news, avoiding #campus spaces—recorded significantly worse #mentalhealth outcomes than those who sought support, talked to others, or made concrete plans in response to #discrimination. The #researchers warn that institutional climates that downplay antisemitism can unintentionally encourage avoidance coping, which their data links to higher #depression."

Hillels expand mental-health supports as Jewish students retreat from campus life amid rising antisemitism

Research finds that students who coped by avoiding hostile situations fared worse than those who sought support.
