Overall health influences academic progress, grades, and success.  Your health can help in learning… instead of hinder.  This matters for a lifetime, for you and friends. 

Now, as you transition to the U of M, do not allow any former weakness weigh you down.  Get ready to become and remain stronger.  You are not alone in pro-actively addressing aspects of your own health:  physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual. 

This list is just a beginning to resources and opportunities.  Ask for any questions!
