This comprehensive white paper, based on the American College Health Foundation (ACHF) Emotional Well-Being Survey conducted in 2021, explores how environmental factors affect emotional well-being across various campus populations. With responses from nearly 8,000 students, staff, and faculty from nine institutions, the study highlights significant differences in well-being metrics and the crucial role of institutional support for diversity. Key findings include lower emotional well-being among students, high levels of depression, loneliness, and anxiety, and the powerful influence of perceived institutional support on emotional well-being. This is the third paper in a series aimed at framing and measuring well-being in higher education, offering valuable insights for fostering a supportive and inclusive campus environment.
