Higher Ed: KUT's Jennifer Stayton And Dr. Ed Burger On Stress In Education

The end of the school year is a busy time for students, faculty, staff, and families. Finals exams are looming; seniors in college or graduate school may be on the hunt for a job; and many students have to say goodbye to friends and teachers. Actually, the entire school year can feel stressful with tests, grades, activities and high expectations to perform well. In this episode of KUT's podcast "Higher Ed," Southwestern University President Dr. Ed Burger and KUT's Jennifer Stayton discuss the origins of stress; the role it can play in education and learning; and how to successfully manage it (both in and out of school).
