The document discusses the issue of depression among college students. It finds that stress is the number one cause of depression in college students. Suicide is the second leading cause of death on college campuses. The campus being discussed, CSUMB, currently has limited resources to help students with depression aside from the campus health center. Potential solutions proposed include establishing peer counseling centers, promoting stress management techniques, and providing more information through meetings and screening tests. The synthesis argues that educating students is key to preventing and treating depression, and that stress management can reduce the likelihood of developing depression.
