If you have ever been questioned as to why health promotion efforts are needed on college campuses, a study just released by the University of Minnesota Boyton Health Services will give you some great talking points. "Our study shows that there is a direct link between college students' health and their academic achievement. This is the first time that anything like this has been published where Grade Point Average is linked to all these behaviors," said Dr. Ed Ehlinger, the director and chief health officer of the University of Minnesota Boynton Health Service.
