Campus health programs

About this book

College students continue to need medical care and health programs. Increasing financial pressures, a more complicated social setting, and new ways of looking at health care do not diminish these needs. These topics were addressed at a conference convened by the Josiah Macy, Jr. Foundation in Princeton, N.J., May 1974. Other topics covered include staffing, employment of students in health services, the special needs of women and minorities, insurance and budgetary problems, and the relationship of health programs to various constituencies in the academic and general communities. The participants stressed the need for more careful evaluation of the effects of health programs and of the largely unmet challenges of preventative medicine. -- from Book Jacket.
