I anticipate the second student would be much more resilient.

On a related note does anyone have info on the rate of use of psychoactive medications on campuses such as notre dame? I include such meds as SSRIs and their like, stimulants, anti psychotics, etc. I've heard it's way up, I'm just curious how high. I tried to find info on that but did not find it.

Personally, I think this insistence on nearing perfection and "failure is not an option" is creating a neurotic bunch. Upper middle class seems generally consumed with worry their children will end up in a lower strata, thus creating an arms race. Of course, employers find the neuroticism useful.
