Gender Violence Prevention and Education Services presents Empty Place at the Table to honor and recognize women and children in Northwest Ohio who have had their lives taken due to domestic violence. This project began in 1993 in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, and the display demonstrates the way domestic violence devastates a community and family. These victims of violence will not be forgotten. All stories have been provided by the Bethany House in Toledo, OH. The exhibit will be on display from October 1st to October 31st in Social House @ The Oaks, Carillon Place, Kreischer Sundial, and The Nest in the Bowen-Thompson Student Union.

"Let's Talk" is a free and confidential service available to all BGSU students. Students can meet for a brief, informal, 15-minute consultation with BGSU Counseling Center staff. They can listen to specific problems, help explore solutions and introduce you to what it’s like to speak with a member of the staff.  Please note: "Let's Talk" does not take the place of therapy, and consultations are not appropriate for urgent concerns or mental health emergencies. During the consultation, BGSU clinicians will listen to your concerns and offer support, information and resources.   Learn more about "Let's Talk">> __________________________________________________________ As the BGSU Counseling Center, we welcome all students and aspire to respect cultural, individual and role differences.
