Why today's university students are depressed

Study reveals that depression is highest in students who reside outside institution premises, those involved in substance abuse and those molested in childhood.

One Friday night in 2016, a First Year student at Moi University locked herself up in her room, slit her wrist and waited to bleed out.

For two days, she lay in her own blood in a room she had rented outside the university, away from other students.
