MSU's Student Counseling Services and Center for America's Veterans, along with Active Minds, sponsored "Send Silence Packing," a Wednesday Drill Field event dedicated to suicide prevention and education. An array of backpacks ringed the flag pole, each with messages and other information. The tag here reads: "I represent 1 out of the 1,100 students who commit suicide on average each year." Active Minds is a national organization focused on collegiate mental health issues.
