Recognizing a Student in Distress
Faculty and staff are an important component in recognizing students that are having difficulties during the academic year. Albertus Magnus students have many challenges to cope with during their college experience. The students are not only learning how to manage academic expectations but are also dealing with a variety of stressors. Some of these stressors are time management, expectations of their athletic team, interpersonal relationships, deciding a major, increasing overall independence, and learning how live away from home.
These daily stressors can contribute to increase in poor academic performance, roommate difficulties, depression, anxiety, drug and alcohol use, and interpersonal conflict. The staff and faculty’s ability to recognize and address concerns about a student are significant to helping the student get the help they need and to be successful at Albertus Magnus College.
