Pressure on Campus??

College experiences are the stepping stones for young adults across the globe. Both socially and mentally, earning degrees are life changing achievements. BUT! ... What is the biggest problem facing college students today? After speaking to a few students here at Frostburg State University, I asked them what they thought. Third year student Johnny C, a fine arts major from Fredrick, Maryland claims it's the partying. Balancing study time with social activities is what gets the best of him. "Sometimes it's just too hard to say no, even when you know the hangover is coming the next morning." For Shaun Rohde, an Education major from Leesburg, VA claims it's all about the money. With his parents paying the hefty tuition and housing costs, maintaining a part - time job for living expenses is tough. But the toughest is part is maintaining a part - time job AND maintaining decent grades simultaneously. He claims that "there is nothing better than a day of nothing". Talking about the past experiences with Joseph Garrity, a recent Biology graduate of Frostburg State University, he swears that you have to make every second of studying count. He believes there just isn't enough time in the day for everything. Mr. Garrity played baseball during his time here at Frostburg and has recently signed a contract with an Illinois minor league baseball team. He says his success is from the discipline he learned in college. Mr. Garrity states "There's no room for error".
