Wellbeing Wednesday: Excelling in Law School When Your Brain Thinks Differently

Wellbeing Wednesdays is an event series presented by Student Wellbeing. This series includes informative passive and active events focusing each month on one of the 6 elements of law student wellbeing. January focuses on Intellectual Wellbeing of Law Students. 

Today's Session:

Andrea Falco, Student Wellbeing Counsellor, will use her clinical expertise in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Autism Spectrum Disorder to support neurodivergent students and their allies in excelling at law school with a brain that thinks differently. Andrea will highlight tangible skills for students to practice. Panelists, Robert Lim & Patrick Walker will be sharing their experience being neurodivergent and strategies they have used in the legal profession. 

Please feel welcomed to bring your lunch to the event. Student Wellbeing will provide snacks!
