The response exhibited by the student is allergy and it can be due to allergens such as dust, pollen, mites etc which are different in different enviu. Hence, due to it's intreaction with these allergens the body produce an exaggerated immune system response and Igt antibodies are produced. The sneezing  and running nose are common symptoms exhibited during allergy due to histamine produced by mast cells. Anti histamine can be very helpful in controlling there allergy response.
