The Mission of the Student Health Service is to promote and maintain
the health of students attending the university by modifying or removing
health-related barriers to learning. This goal can be met by helping
students obtain the skills necessary to remain healthy throughout life.
The Health Service, in cooperation with other University and community
resources, embraces a comprehensive approach involving health education,
health maintenance, acute care, appropriate care of chronic illnesses,
and referral assistance in order to achieve its mission. The result
will be students who understand how to make informed decisions about
their health and thus are able to be self-directed towards optimal wellness.
The foundation of this mission is the staff whose concern and understanding
for students is measured by its competence and dedication.
