Health and Wellness

Our Mission

The Health and Wellness Committee is dedicated to the promotion of a quality student-centered health education program for the Dickinson College student body. This is accomplished through communicating information regarding health initiatives which empower students to make informed choices about their health and well-being. This committee is designed to support the educational mission of the college.

 

 

Healthy Lifestyles

Introduction
One of the most exciting things about college is the ability to create your own experiences and learning opportunities. As a hard-working and busy student, it's important to take the time to think about and implement a regimen that allows for a healthy existence. At Dickinson College, there is a wide variety of resources available to you to accommodate your healthy living needs.

Dining Services
In addition to a number of offices dedicated to assisting you with making healthy choices, the college is proud to have one of the leading Dining Service operations in the country. Students can always count on having multiple options for a healthy meal. Dining Services will also assist students with special dietary needs associated with a medical condition. For more information call x1318 or access their website at: www.dickinson.edu/dining

Housing
Finally, our residential program offers the opportunity to live in housing units designated as Healthy Living. The second floor of Adams Hall is designated as a Healthy Living environment for first-year students, and upperclassmen are assigned to Longsdorff Hall. Healthy Living housing is comprised of residents who endorse a substance-free lifestyle. Students who select these living arrangements, commit to not using alcohol, tobacco products, or illegal drugs in the residence.
