#3. Go to the Health Center and get some information on a common
health problem faced by college students (i.e. stress, eating disorders, sexual
health). Post info, answers to inquiry questions, and a photo on your blog.
The
Granoff Student Health Center is located on the Southern Connecticut State University campus. It is on Wintergreen Avenue near university
residence halls and across the street from Moore Fieldhouse. The academic year hours are Monday through
Friday, 8 A.M. until 4:30 P.M.
The
professional staff members at Southern are always available for medical
needs with students, as well as making positive health care decisions. They
usually advise students to make appointments for all visits.
Southern’s
Granoff Student Health Services has a physician and nurses to help all students
all year round. There are HIV/STI
counseling and testing held here also. This
was the first time I have been to Southern’s health center to obtain
information and it was very helpful. Now
I know where to go if I am sick.
A
common problem that college students face is getting sick with a common cold or
the flu because germs spread easily through colleges. Students touch a lot of different door knobs
and buildings, and after they touch all these things they touch their nose and
eyes, which spreads quickly into their system.
This
time of the year especially is when people tend to catch a cold. Even the public restrooms may spread
germs. I am generally very healthy all
of the time, but now know where I can get help if I do catch a cold.
