2007 College Health Summit

Thursday, November 15, 2007
Hubert H. Humphrey Center, University of Minnesota
 
The 2007 College Health Summit
In the spring of 2007 Boynton Health Service at the University of Minnesota conducted the College Student Health Survey on fourteen Minnesota college and university campuses.

The resulting College Student Health Survey Reports cover seven key health topics: Health Insurance and Health Care Utilization, Mental Health, Tobacco Use, Alcohol and Other Drug Use, Personal Safety and Financial Health, Nutrition and Physical Activity, and Sexual Health. This is the most comprehensive assessment of college students ever produced in the state!
On November 15, 2007 we released the results. Summit attendees received a complementary copy of our seven volume Comprehensive Results report series outlining the aggregate results of all participating schools. Experts discussed the meaning of the results and the impact these data have the health of college students and the state of Minnesota as a whole.

Posted 11/19/07 Electronic copies of the reports can be downloaded here.
