Parent Perspective from Dr. Bev Kloeppel

Posted in

To assist with the transition into college, we encourage all new students to read the Student Health 101 Back-to-School special issue. Student Health 101 is a monthly health and wellness magazine just for college students and their parents. Each issue contains valuable information that will help your student make better decisions while in college, and can help you with a better understanding of the health and wellness challenges that face today's students.

As a UNM parent, you are also invited to read the Parent Perspective, the parents-only edition that summarizes the topics covered in your student's Student Health 101 issue.

Here's the link for your student (or yourself) to access the Back-to-School edition of Student Health 101: http://issue.sh101digital.com/showmag.php?mid=wgwqqp

Here's the link to the parents-only Parent Perspective, which should give you some background about the pressures facing today's incoming new students:

  • A Tricky Balancing Act: Freedom and Responsibility
  • Raising the Grade: It's All About Study Skills (and what's different in college)
  • Roommates 101: Roommate Survival Guide
  • Take Control of Your Money: Making Cash Last on Campus
  • Making Campus Connections: What You Can Do to Find Your Niche
  • And much, much more!

Please take a few minutes to read the issues each month, as we believe that they can be a valuable resource for you and your family.

Best of luck to you and your student this Fall!
