  How college is not just an education its an experience that is costly, is it worth going to school to be in student debt, or only worth it to build connections? When going to college, financial situations and family relationships shape this mindset of going to college and how that can affect an experience at college. White A, Hingson R. The burden of alcohol use: excessive alcohol consumption and related consequences among college students.  Alcohol research . 2013;35(2):201-218.  https://bit.ly/3aBHQ1S   When taking the social situations of college, do students who are drinking at college know what they are going into and know how much they can intake.

That fully committed mindset to school is a huge part of success with students whether that be with the party, professional, or mobility pathway. I want to be able to talk about the pathways and relate them to financial stances with families to make students aware going to college is not necessary unless you are financially able to handle it.
