Harvard Students Are Twice as Mentally Ill as the General Population Amid Ivy Psychological Meltdown
"Forty-seven percent of surveyed seniors indicated that they experienced mental illness at some point in their time at Harvard, and 13 percent said they were unsure," according to a survey of the Class of 2026 conducted by the Harvard Crimson student newspaper. For instance, upon returning from summer vacation, students do not automatically continue seeing their therapist from the previous school year. Instead, they must undergo the placement process all over again, unnecessarily lengthening the time it takes to be matched with a therapist.
