• Making movement a part of the daily campus culture.
• Assessing physical activity at every student health visit.
• Providing students, with the tools necessary to strengthen healthy physical activity habits that can last a lifetime.
• Connecting university health care providers with university health fitness specialists to provide a referral system for exercise prescriptions.
