Do college students today struggle with reading?
Work hard, play hard: a popular mantra among college students today. But is this true in real life? Do students work as hard as they're expected to by their professors, and not just as they expect themselves to?

Students say they're just overloaded with things and simply don't have enough time. -
5 Books to Read Before Graduating College (Literature)
College is a fun place to be in, but at times it can also be a bubble — in the sense that what (and where) you choose to study will determine who you will be surrounded by and, in turn, what sort of ideas and opinions that you will be exposed to most of the time. Reading is one good way to get out of that bubble: it reminds you that there is a wider world out with many more things to explore beyond what it is that you are studying. Yet, many students arguably do not read as widely as they should. If, for example, you chose to study something in the S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) areas, chances are you'll go through your college life without encountering works of literature. The same applies to those pursuing degrees in humanities and social sciences; chances are you wouldn't make the effort to read books that explain in detail about important scientific discoveries and paradigm shifts in the past two centuries. For students who are more balanced and would like to expand their literary horizons before graduating, here are some books you should read before venturing out in the "real world." -

3 Essential Social Skills for College Students
College is, first and foremost, a place to learn more about the things that you are interested in, but it’s also a place to socialize. It’s where you make new friends and learn to expose yourself to other people, their values and beliefs, opinions, and (hopefully) common interests. As such, it’s also important to develop a set of skills that will make the process easier and more natural for you to connect with others. Some of these skills can be cultivated inside the classroom with fellow classmates and such, but others require a greater level of involvement beyond the classroom setting. -
