Stress on campus
Consequences for the Student
- Since the start of the pandemic, 82% of college students have reported they have experienced increased anxiety, 68% have reported struggling with isolation/loneliness, and 63% have dealt with depression, according to a 2020 survey conducted by the Jed Foundation.
Consequences for Campuses
- As the National Academies of Sciences report stated with practical bluntness: “Colleges and universities of all types and sizes will have to deal with this likelihood, if not for the benefit of their students and the nation that needs their graduates, then certainly for the sake of their financial situation—every student that drops out of school because of a mental health issue is a student who is not paying tuition.”
Heartbreaking and negative headlines about college students, departments, coaches, and staff keep coming, and they won't stop unless we collectively do something to prevent them.

Individual, Group, or 1-on-1 coaching - it's not just for the athletes.
