           In the article, 'The Effects Of Stress On The Lives Of Emerging College Students', Peer, Hillman, and Hoet, all show how stress affects college students.  In the article the authors first provide an introduction into the topic of college stress.   It explains how various parts of the college life cause stress for the young adults, and backs up their argument with a study they performed. After the introduction they begin describing the study they performed, and provide analysis of the results.  This article will definitely provide evidence that will explain the community of college students at the University of Kentucky.  It will allow me to expand on some of the negatives of the community, and hopefully engage the audience, who will be all UK students, by showing them that if they are feeling stressed, they're not alone.  With this I can expand on how we, as a community, are all in the same situation, and this situation isn't easy.  However, the adversity we all are currently facing only brings us closer as a community.  This information will also help to lead into my documentary where I will specifically focus on a problem in the community.  To find this source I searched different keywords into the 'Academic Search Complete' database, on UK's library website.
