Depression amongst College Students

Depression amongst College Students

Depression among college has been on the rise in recent years due to several issues like the high cost of tuition fee, among other things. The article to be used in this article was authored by Kyle (2015), and the article offers several solutions to several challenges faced by college students. Kyle (2015) has used a survey that was carried out by the American College Association-National College. However, at one point while reading the article one feels that the author was biased because at some point he would use his challenges in trying to expound more on some of the challenges experienced by college students. However, using information and statistics gathered by one organization may not be enough, and to some extent, it leads to the realization of biased conclusions. The paper has been used in addressing college students of which the most significant number is youths. However, at times youths may not be able to go through the article and analyze the identified challenges, especially once they come across a challenge they have never faced. The author was able to identify several facts that are found to lead o depression to college students, and this was enough evidence that the research had been conducted in a significant way.  According to the author, some individuals may feel depressed because they think it is like they are not able to achieve the anticipated happiness and this has been one factor that has made many college students be stressed. The methodology used in the study was among the best because talking to students from colleges in the US made sure that most of the issues leading to depression among college students were established. The article was timely because it came in such a time when the world was undergoing some changes primarily through social media, and this was a great idea of educating college students more on how to evade some of the challenges that have in the past led to depression..
