You are not alone: Student mental health in business schools

What one professor wants struggling students to know based off his experience with seemingly striving students.

Greg Dawson, clinical professor of accountancy, shared an excellent example of how to support students through crises in AACSB's Best Business Schools blog, where he tells the story of a W. P. Carey student who experienced mental health challenges while in school.

In this story published Jan. 5, 2021, in AACSB:

I regularly meet with students who believe they are the only ones experiencing imposter syndrome — the feeling that they are undeserving of their accomplishments, or incapable of achieving the tasks they’ve been chosen to do. The reality is that almost everyone feels overwhelmed or not good enough at some point during their education.
