Stress Hitting College Students the Hardest

USA TODAY released a new study showing that college students are the most stressed population segment. Gosh, I wonder why?

You are...

• taking on multiple credit classes
• involved in several out-of-class activities
• working an extra job to pay for the tuition hikes
• scared your mac and cheese supply might run out
  
• taking out extra loans just to pay for your textbooks
• stressed about getting a job after graduation
• worried about all your socks having holes in them

Good thing college is a finite amount of time. But since you are still in college try out some tips given by SL Writer Mike Sharp on how to keep your life more balanced.

Tom, I'm not seeing any articles about stress at that link. And I'm not able to (logically) link the chart in your post with "college students" given that it only breaks down the results by age.

Hey Kevin,

The study was embedded in an email I received from the USA Today Campus Coverage. I looked online to find a copy, but couldn't anywhere. Here is the image of my email > http://screencast.com/t/kgmdtyHhdU

The links in the email don't work either.

If you want I can forward the email on to you too.

As far as the linking, yes you are correct. I was making the assumption that the 18-24 year olds in this study were college student as it was part of their Campus Coverage and all the past studies covered only college students, but technically they don't say who they studied, so if could be any young adult in college or not.

Life is nature's most precious gift to mankind. Life is precious . It is sacred. Its every moment is to be enjoyed and cherished , Unfortunately most of people instead of enjoying it , make a mess of it, destroy it , desecrate it. Psychologists for centuries have been searching the reason for this utter unhappiness and dissatisfaction with life and have proposed one or more of the remedies. But the most effective and rapid antidote to all depression, anxiety, worry, stress etc. is a very simple technique. This actually is not a technique but a very simple fact of life which most of people do not notice; consequently they remain happy throughout their life. Let me explain this simple fact of life in a little detail.

Anyway I like this post very much. I will go to share this in my twitter page...

Milkshake Moment update: I filled out a form last week to apply for a summer course at another University and promptly received a rejection stating that I had provided too much information. To have my application considered, I had to remove the unnecessary SENTENCE and apply again. Why or why couldn't they just ignore the sentence?
