The Department of Campus Recreation and Student Programming has created a Health Initiative Map that will allow students to better identify health-related services on campus along with newly mapped out walking trials. It is a regular map of campus with brief descriptions of each health building, along with the building's location and contact information.
Mandi Campana, coordinator of the fitness and wellness program at Youngstown State University, said the new map would show students all health services provided and to show walkers "how far they are actually going."
"In the beginning of the fall semester, we decided we wanted to make something that provides the whole YSU community with a way of being physically active," Campana said.
Although new walking routes were created, Campana hopes they will not dissuade students from still going to the Andrews Student Recreation and Wellness Center to work out.
"We have posters in different areas on campus so people know it's in place, but we want feedback from students before we mark the routes in the cement and it will be permanent," Campana said.
