Ep. 159: Uncertainty, Disruption and Campus Mental Health
How the political climate and economic uncertainty are increasing the mental health challenges on campuses.
Students are more likely to complete a degree program when they form connections to campus; however, building relationships remains difficult for many in college.

However, building high-quality and long-lasting relationships can feel challenging or unattainable for many college students.
In this episode, Elon University’s Peter Felten and Emily Krechel, who serve as members on the Mentoring Initiatives Design Team, discuss the role of relationships in student success and how Elon stakeholders look to create a relationship-rich university community.
