College Stress – A Conversation With College Students

Students from Birmingham Southern College

Join Dr. Mark Westfall as he and the Lochamy Brothers discuss college stress with 3 students from Birmingham Southern. The crew talks about the transition to college, studying, socializing, drinking and trying to fit in! This episode will be of interest for students and parents.  One goal of listening is to provide an opportunity for open dialogue.  Transition to college is one of the most stressful time periods of early human development. The approach should be thoughtfully considered and the process closely followed.  Yet it is important to allow the student to navigate their own problems. This process allows them to further develop their own coping tools.
