May, Skin Cancer Awareness Month, is a time to educate about the dangers of skin cancer and simple ways to protect your skin. Using sunscreen protects your skin from UV rays and potentially deadly skin cancers. UHW is proud to pilot a new Skin Smart initiative, offering free sunscreen at select campus locations.

Look for touch-free dispensers and apply SPF 30 sunscreen at the Varsity Tennis Courts and Spartan Greens. Say yes to skin protection!

Whether students are feeling overwhelmed due to academic, social, or personal pressures or just need to connect, Togetherall is available 24/7 to remind them they are not alone. This free, anonymous, peer-to-peer mental health support community is monitored and moderated 24/7 by licensed clinicians and empowers students to give and receive support for a full range of concerns.

Many students do not seek campus in-person/virtual mental health treatment. Togetherall provides an alternative option for students seeking mental health support, offering an additional resource for students who are looking for an outlet to share and process their emotions.

Thanks to a generous donation, UHW is now offering free Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines to enrolled MSU students who may be uninsured or underinsured.

While most HPV infections will go away by themselves within two years, nearly 10% of the time, the infection will last longer and can cause some cancers. 

To schedule the 1^st dose of the HPV vaccine, enrolled MSU students can call Campus Health Services at 517-353-4660.

Michigan State University Health and Wellbeing (UHW) is pleased to launch its first annual report, sharing 2023 key initiatives, metrics, and impact to the students, faculty, and staff they serve.
