Some people might want to see the data for themselves, rather than have you (or the media) interpret it for them. If not, it's simply a tiny bit of wasted bandwidth here.
Anyhoo, as the numbers show, the 1 in 5 or 20% rate is actually 0.6% Just a tad bit of an exaggeration.
Not at all sure what you mean by "the college bubble" is about social isolation? Social isolation refers to a lack of interaction or contact with others. I think we would find more prevalence of that in non-student populations.
