February 15th, 2026
Bucknell Mental Health Training Act
Resolution Summary: The resolution calls upon Bucknell to mandate all Junior Fellows, Residential Fellows, and Residential Advisors to go through QPR suicide training with the purpose of making them better equipped for dealing with potential mental health issues from residents. It will also allow for students suffering from mental health issues to be put in contact with mental health resources more quickly. Lastly, it encourages other peer mentorship roles, as well as faculty and staff, to go through the training and to better equip themselves. The policy would go into effect beginning in the 2026-27 Academic Year.
