College Students Feel “Unprepared” To Clean On Their Own!

There’s a college student’s Guide to cleaning that provides resources for those confused kids who have had their mom do everything for them because they haven’t left the house yet.

Cleaning tips 101!

Class of Clean is now in session. The “College Student’s Guide to Cleaning” aims to educate college students on proper cleaning, laundry and hygiene practices.

According to new data, while nearly all college students recognize a clean room helps them feel their best, both mentally and physically, nearly 3 in 4 were less than completely prepared to clean on their own upon first arriving at college.

Today, more than half of students cite a lack of motivation and time as the top two challenges for cleaning. Yet, more than 1 in 5 say a lack of cleaning supplies or cleaning knowledge prevents them from keeping tidy.

As students head back to school or arrive on campus for the first time, the critical connection between cleaning and health is important to understand and implement into daily routines. It is easy for germs to spread on college campuses due to the high number of people living and learning in close quarters.

But that’s not all – a lack of cleaning can also cause interpersonal problems. In fact, according to new research, 71% of survey respondents with roommates argue over how to clean and nearly half of the students would be very or somewhat likely to walk out on a date if they saw that their significant other’s room was messy.
