Strategies for Connection

Students are especially vulnerable to loneliness, and unlike academic struggles or basic needs, it can be tough to spot and fiendishly hard to combat. 

Experts say meaningful social connection is a crucial part of wellness and inextricably interwoven with academic and social thriving. And colleges are well positioned to help students become more socially engaged.

For this report, The Chronicle spoke to more than 50 students, clinicians, academic administrators, scholars, and other experts. They offer insight on both the scope and nature of student loneliness, but also on the opportunities colleges can take to forge connections. 

With this report, you'll:

  • Understand the stigmas that still surround loneliness.
  • Explore the intertwined causes of students’ loneliness: the pandemic, social media, and more.
  • Find examples of structured social-connection programs that offer steps for students to get to know each other.
  • Learn how to strike an appropriate tone in discussing delicate topics, like suicidal thinking.
