With the June 24, 2022 Supreme Court of the United States decision overturning Roe v. Wade, campuses across the U.S. are scrambling to address students’ reproductive health needs and deal with underlying issues contributing to lack of access to care. As laws permitting or limiting abortion care are now decided at the state, campus policies, access to abortion care, student activism, and other forms of student engagement around reproductive health may vary drastically from one higher education institution to another. In this episode, Dr. Heather Shea talks with Dr. Teresa DePiñeres and Dr. Carrie N. Baker about essential knowledge and skills for addressing reproductive health on college and university campuses.

Trauma is omnipresent in the lives of college students despite receiving limited attention in student affairs literature. Whether sexual assault and intimate partner violence, campus shootings, or racial trauma, many students arrive on our campuses and have either experienced trauma before arriving or while in college. It is critical for student affairs professionals to increase their understanding of trauma and its effect on the mental health and well-being of students.
