In midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, college students have been left astray, with many students qualifying as dependents and unable to receive aid, many students have been led into a financial turmoil. Alongside financial stressors, college students face challenges in the classroom and in their homes. The adoption of a student mental health day would allow for students to take needed self-care time, that would aid in reducing stress and increase students' improvement in the classroom.
The burnout is so real right now. Trying to work a job and keep up with these online classes is draining. We seriously need a break.
