Initial topic Idea

     The topic I am considering to explore is: How isolation due to COVID-19 effects students mental health. I want to focus on this topic because I am personally really curious how this pandemic has effected students mentally on a larger scale. I know people as well who did not respond positively to the initial isolation and I just want to know more about others as well. Another topic that came to mind after lecture today was something about how coming from a more affluent family benefits your college experience vs coming from a less affluent family. This topic came of interest to me because after doing the reading it really just opened my eyes on the disadvantages that less affluent students experience and I would love to know more about it. Coming from a less affluent family, I feel like I can really resonate with the topic and have a strong opinion towards it. I still do not know for sure what will be best, but excited to hear back from you!!
