UND lands on list of healthiest colleges

According to Greatist.com, UND ranks as one of the nation’s healthiest campuses.

The Web site says students at UND have access to some of the best health resources in the country, ranking it among the top seven healthiest universities in the Midwest — and among the top 26 in the entire nation.

UND’s food offerings—such as vegan entrée options and the popular Culinary Corner healthy-eating classes—made it an easy standout.  Judges also cited the University’s drug and alcohol education, including the “What’s Your Buzz” app that uses Mario Kart and special goggles to simulate drunk driving.

Schools were selected for the list based on criteria including campus food, health services, athletic facilities and quality of life. Nominations were also submitted through social media.
