Hannah Gentry, an intern at the David Matthews Center, says that "Every thirty minutes, a child commits suicide as a direct result of being bullied."
During the forum, students were asked to explain how bullying affects their community. Pamela Faddis, a student at UM, says that the easiest way to stand up to bullying, is to simply speak up.
"A lot of people would just walk by and pretend it didn't happen or something. If you say something most of the time, they'll either stop or you can actually get involved with it."
