College students are in the critical period of their personal development. They are rational, enthusiastic, creative and challenging. But they are likely to lose their head when faced with the constantly changing society, increasingly intense competition as well as problems resulting from study, employment, finances and emotions. Consequently, a considerable number of college students are suffering, to some extent, from mental health problems. Mental health is a complex and systemic problem. Therefore, to implement mental health education as a vital measure, school education should be closely integrated with families and society and stick to a people-oriented principle so as to build up students’ mental health and increase their addictiveness to society.
