It's a wonder that many university students today can even stand on their own two feet! We faced our share of pressures at university back in the 1970s, of course, but few of us had the kind of problems that today's students seem to have. Without smart phones, the internet, and social media sites (for the latter we wouldn't have had much time anyway), we had far fewer distractions to interfere with our university work. In a world with fewer choices, life was a lot less pressured, so that no doubt enabled us to handle stress much better than today's students can.
