About ‘A Reasonable Standard’

A Reasonable Standard is a platform that publishes honest and transparent stories from law students about the mental health issues they face at University. We aim to provide an unfiltered perspective into the lives of our peers, and ultimately break the stigma around mental illness. We also connect students to the right support services & resources they need to help them take actionable steps forward.
