Student Leaders Struggling: When the Best and Brightest Need Help

Help for Struggling Student Leaders

We rely heavily on student leaders.

We rely on them to lead student organizations energetically, to put in extra time when required, and to handle an endless array of planning and execution details—all while managing a full load of classes and their busy personal lives.

Most student leaders manage their many duties without a hitch, amazing us with their abilities to multitask and balance competing priorities.

Sometimes, however, student leaders become overwhelmed by their many responsibilities and things begin to fall apart.

That’s when student leaders rely on their advisors.

Student leaders need caring and alert professionals to notice when they are in need of support and intervention, because often they cannot recognize their own unhealthy behaviors. 

This white paper from the National Center for Student Leadership, Student Leaders Struggling: When the Best and Brightest Need Help, prepares student advisors and mentors to recognize and respond to the warning signs that indicate when a student leader is nearing a crisis point and how to help before, during, and after a crisis.

Student Leaders Struggling is based on an online seminar presented by experienced educators Lee Burdette Williams, Barry A. Schreier, and Christine M. Wilson. Dr. Williams is the vice president and dean of students at Wheaton College (MA), Dr. Schreier is the director of Counseling and Mental Health Services at the University of Connecticut, and Dr. Wilson is associate dean of students and director of student activities at the University of Connecticut.

Student Leaders Struggling: When the Best and Brightest Need Help—A National Center for Student Leadership White Paper is an essential resource for everyone involved in overseeing student-run organizations and their leaders, including student affairs professionals, student activities personnel, faculty advisors, and counseling center staff.

The student leaders on your campus take good care of your campus organizations.
