Student Leaders Struggling: When the Best & Brightest Need Help

Mental Health Issues On Campus

Solve a problem hidden in your most productive students, they're easy to spot:NCSL

  • The student government president with the 4.0 GPA.
  • The R.A. who also edits the campus newspaper.
  • The student active in campus ministry who spends weekends volunteering at a clinic.

On the surface they look invincible.

Deep down they could be close to a breakdown.

Student leaders are not immune to stress or mental difficulties.

Though they’re usually better equipped to handle the rigors of college life, they sometimes pile on more responsibilities and don’t allow themselves desperately needed downtime. Often advisors don’t see anything wrong until it’s too late.

Staff need to recognize the signs of a struggling star student, be aware of the additional stressors an organization might provide and intervene before the student leader has a real crisis.

Hear from three leading education experts with ground-level experience in student affairs, psychology and organizational development, who give you all the tools necessary to keep student leaders on the right track.
