The Value of Exercise is Medicine On Campus

The prevalence of physical inactivity on college campuses is high nationwide. Physical inactivity is related to a variety of chronic diseases such as Obesity, Type II Diabetes, and Heart Disease. By engaging in regular exercise, we can change the culture on campus. We can embrace exercise as a daily part of our lives so that lifelong, healthful habits are established and public health goals are met.
