For my paper, I want to focus on how commuting affects a student’s social life, academically, and mentally.

I also mentions the different ways in which different students cope with the stress and with the decision of commuting and still be able to fulfill their other responsibilities.   Lastly, it shows that students who commute have different perspectives than those who commute when faced with the same issue because their enviroment influences their thinking and their mindset.  (4) Author Dr. John J.
