McNeese is home to many students and faculty from Nepal who bring tremendous warmth, culture and vibrance to our campus community. We are heartbroken by the catastrophic flooding in their home country and know the grief and worry they are experiencing for their families, friends and communities must be overwhelming.

During this difficult time, we want our Nepalese students and faculty to know that they are not alone. We encourage anyone who is struggling, needs support or simply needs someone to talk to, to reach out to the McNeese Counseling Center. Our campus community stands with you and holds the people of Nepal in our thoughts.
