The main source of emery that college students are lacking………

SLEEP

According to the National Sleep Foundation, “62% of college students do not get enough sleep.” College classes and activities a student are expected to accomplish each day are time consuming, but are well worth it when you receive your degree that you worked hard to earn.

College student lack of sleep stems from the over loads of classes and preparing for exams and tests. When I went to classes all day for 2 days, during my statistic class I would always fall asleep during the class for 20 min. and then I would wake up and finish taking notes. I think the Professor never said anything to me, because I always completed my homework and participated in class.

Even though college student are aware of the affect of sleep deprived and the strain it but on the body the next few days, but students have to be prepared for an exam. When I have an exam I usually pull an overnighter. When I have a test I usually try to get some sleep for the next day. But when some students do not get the right amount of sleep it causes the immune system to weaken. Causing the student to get a cold or other side affects. Do you get the right amount of sleep?

I'm a freshman at UCSD and I definitely don't get enough sleep because I share a room with two night owl roomates and I share a suite with five uber-obnoxious, squealing idiots. Last week I had two night with four hours of sleep each night and it totally messed me up. I need my sleep.

I KNOW I don't get enough sleep. I have been working about 50 hours per week at my job and then trying to attend classes and keep up with homework on top of it. I only torture myself because I really think that advancing my education is important for my future.

I do, but I don't require as much as most people. Sleep deprivation can take a huge toll on your body! Even when my body and mind aren't tired, my eyes are tired from not being rested.
