Exercise is Medicine On Campus An EIM-OC initiative

At St. Cloud State University, the Exercise is Medicine® On Campus (EIM-OC) initiative promotes physical activity as a key health component. By collaborating with faculty, staff, and students, we aim to make movement part of daily life. Physical activity is assessed during student health visits, and we provide tools for lifelong healthy habits while connecting health care providers with fitness specialists for exercise referrals. Together, we’re making physical activity a core part of the experience.
