Abstract

This article discusses the important issue of stigmatization among college students with mental illness, a population at risk for not attaining academic success. One factor that plays into this is the increasing numbers of college students reporting mental health concerns and lack of sufficient resources to serve their needs. This article is a call for action to work towards destigmatizing mental illness as a society in order to facilitate destigmatization on college campuses.
