Yes, WVU has football, classes, and a shitty PRT, but there are things WVU has to offer that can make you a better you. Services that can help you physically, mentally, and strengthen your ties with the community.

Free Nutritionist

So you've got a beer belly, or you feel gross eating Chick-fil-A 27/4. And, it's okay. There are nutritionists in the rec and in the student health building who you can see for free. You can make a plan on what you need to slim down, bulk up, or just start eating healthier.

Shabbat Dinner

Whether you are Jewish or not, the Jewish center welcomes everyone for a Shabbat dinner. A time for everyone to come together, coexist and have a good time meeting new people while experiencing the Jewish faith. More Information can be found at https://jewishwv.org/ .

Yoga and Meditation for you to de-stress.

There are so many opportunities to get out of your head and de-stress. WellWVU offers many classes pretty much all day long in a bunch of different locations. School and work are hard. Being able to take a breath and not have to worry about anything but yourself is incredibly important. More info can be found here: https://well.wvu.edu/mindful-mountaineers .

Community Service Opportunities

Many majors, greek life, and clubs require you to do community service. Many people just like doing community service on their own and it is so easy to get involved with iserve or the student center for learning. There are programs available for you to do community service for money off your tuition. How cool is that?

There are a lot of things that are available for you Mountaineers. Things to better you and better others. Help others to help yourself and find yourself in self reflection. I wish you luck.
