7 Crucial Lessons We Can Learn About Minimalism In College

How many times have you heard a person describe their college experiences as being a “poor student living on Ramen noodles”? Having little money and few resources has become synonymous with the life of a college student at this point. Students are caught in this half-way stage of no longer being a kid, yet not quite being a fully-functioning adult either.

The parts of what make our college years so great are actually related to the core philosophies of minimalism. Today, we’re talking about 7 crucial lessons we can learn about minimalism in college!
