LONG BEACH, Calif. (March 19, 2007) - Academic databases through Cal State University Library identifies five concerns among college students regarding their health: alcohol abuse, mental disorders, eating disorders, health care costs and sexually transmitted diseases. Fifty-one students have already been taken to hospitals as a result of drinking at Providence College since their fall semester. Providence College’s president, the Rev. Brian J. Shanley, stated...
"I was a little shocked; I just hadn’t wanted to believe the problem was as serious as it was. This has been a wake-up call for me, that yes, we do have this problem. And I think this is the first time we are facing it head on, transparently."
All colleges, internationally, should wake-up to the health issues concerning our college students.
