"Healthy College Habits" webinar

Submitted by Noor Abou-Rass: Masters of Public Health student

College can be a stressful time, and many habits — like binge drinking and procrastinating — are often difficult to avoid. Additionally, many students struggle to implement healthy habits, such as getting enough sleep, balancing nutrition and staying active.

  • 27.4% of full-time college students engage in binge drinking
  • 95% of college students fail to eat the recommended amount of fruit and vegetables
  • More than 60% of college students report not getting enough physical activity
  • 86.1% of students wait until the last 24 hours to turn in their work

Learn more about habits to implement  — as well as habits to avoid  —as a college student, resources on campus and online to help, and what you can do to improve your habits through the Campus Health Center's "Healthy College Habits" webinar.
