A growing body of research has shown that anxiety and mental health issues have become primary concerns for college students.
To get a leadership perspective on this challenge, we spoke with Elfred Anthony Pinkard, the president of Wilberforce University, who talked about how his students have been coping with the nation's racial reckoning as well as the pandemic.
