News Flash: You’re Not Getting Enough Sleep

This is a sponsored feature. All opinions are 100% from Her Campus.

To put it simply, we as college students are not getting enough sleep. Whether we’re pulling all-nighters to cram for a test or going out the night before an 8 a.m. class, the hours we spend in bed aren’t cutting it. This is why Arianna Huffington, founder and editor-in-chief of The Huffington Post is traveling to college campuses around the country as a part of The Huffington Post’s Sleep Revolution College Tour and to promote her new book, The Sleep Revolution.

“‘Sleep, grades, social life: pick two.’ This motto, or some version of it, can be heard on college campuses across the country — it’s yet more evidence, as if we needed any, that college students today feel as if they’re in a no-win situation, forced to choose between sleep and life,” Arianna wrote in a recent column. She’s making an effort to force collegiettes, and people of all ages, to prioritize sleep. 

Her Campus also wants to help collegiettes catch up on their zZz’s, which is why we’ve partnered with Arianna on her tour. To ensure the best night’s rest possible, we sent 100 copies of The Sleep Revolution as well as “Sleep Kits” with the comfiest pillow and eye mask from Coco-Mat, and a relaxing candle from Fresh.
