Motion to Concur; May 30, 2015; Journal Page 3485; 20 Yeas, 11 Nays


YCT Nay. This bill would require that every incoming freshman to a public university or college take a suicide prevention training program, similar to that of the six hour alcohol awareness course, currently required. YCT opposes the government believing it has a role in preventing tragedies such as suicide and also opposes the motion to concur as the bill was stripped of its 15 minute time limit when it went through the House.
