But this week, cholesterol tests to define what those cheeseburg ers have done, massages to soothe aching backs and a coupon for a free aerobics class may help many students redefine their lifestyles. Health First, which begins today and runs through this Friday, is UNL’s health and well ness fair. Festivities will run daily from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The fair is sponsored by the University Health Center, the Campus Recreation Center and the University Police Depart ment. Stress management tech niques, personal fitness, sexuality issues, personal safety on campus, free massages, cholesterol screen ings and fitness assessments are all part of the week's events. Organizers said the fair will help college students see the I importance of staying healthy. “Students are pulled in so many directions they forget about what they should be doing for themselves and their health,” said Andy Link, University Health Center wellness coordinator. Kris Ohling, assistant director of injury prevention and care at campus rec, said one of the fair’s goals is to help students see that living a healthy lifestyle can be fun. “This is our first annual health fair and we thought we’d work cooperatively with the other enti ties to make it more accessible and a more comprehensive health fair,” Ohling said. Personal trainers will be avail able during the week to help stu dents with fitness evaluations. “Part of engaging in an activity is finding what you like to do,” said Sarah Emanuel, assistant director of Fitness and Wellness services. “A healthy lifestyle encompasses many things: keeping your immune system up, staying physi cally fit and feeling safe and secure in your surroundings.” j ’u '•T •-? ■: • Sept. 25-29 11 a.m. 2 p.m. Delon Lonowski/DN your news source www.dailyneb.com Dancerschool Intense dance and exercise classes offered at all levels and styles to maintain fitness while having fun.
