ThrowKindnessDSC: Spreading Positive Messages Across Campus

Posted on

Category: Uncategorized
Be True 2 You

Research tells us that kindness and gratitude can increase happiness, reduce stress and give us a more positive outlook on our own circumstances.

You're Awesome message

Students in Dr. Kim Hays’ perspectives course focused on mental health and wellbeing put this research into practice throughout campus this week in a campaign they tagged #ThrowKindnessDSC.

You are Loved message

Love Plan of Happiness Message

Students spent time in class writing colorful, positive notes filled with encouraging words, quotes and affirmations and then spread these throughout Roberts Library, Sequoya Hall, Peeples Hall and the Pope Student Center.

If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours - Dolly Parton - message

You are Enough message

While these acts of kindness and love may have just been small notes or chalk on a sidewalk, the class hopes they left a little kindness in their wake and others are encouraged to throw their own kindness at Dalton State.

You'll make it through this message

You can join the movement and throw your own kindness wherever you are!

You matter more than you think message
