Ann Green and Luke Perone 

University life can be stressful and lonely. You might have high expectations for yourself and feel pressure from others. The competition to succeed can be overwhelming. Making meaningful connections with peers, as well as with professors, can be challenging. You may have additional life responsibilities like family or work. In today's world, you might be questioning the value of a university degree, or you may be conflicted about your academic choices. So many factors can lead to increased stress and anxiety, to depression, to avoiding classes, to procrastinating, to becoming socially isolated, and, for a growing number, to dropping out.
