The exhibition is being held by Please Talk, a campus wide mental health initiative which promotes the idea that talking is a sign of strength not of weakness, and that help is available for anyone experiencing challenges at college or at work. The exhibition will run throughout Mental Health Week and is open until Sunday, October 11th. '1 in 4/1 in 5' by Kaye Maahs.
