In honor of National Public Health Week, Graduate Student Life organized events and activities both on and off campus, including a volunteer session at Greater Boston Food Bank, fitness classes, workshops, and a visit to the Public Health Museum.
I would also like to recognize all of SPH’s student organizations who planned activities during National Public Health Week. Each year the American Public Health Association encourages schools of public health to participate to bring visibility to the needs of the Public Health community.
It has been a great week of showcasing the important work happening at BUSPH by our students such as – a community walk with the Biostatistics Student Association, STOP and Talk with with the Sexual Trauma Outreach & Prevention group, Stress relief station with Healthcare Management Student Association, Silver Linings Playbook film screening with Mental Health Public Health Connections, Cradles to Crayons supply drive with Maternal Child Health in Action, #whypublichealthmatters by the Students of Color for Public Health, Here’s to Flint film screening with One Health, Be You room with Queer Alliance, Policy tabling with Academy Health, and the SPH talent show with Student Senate. Also our healthy 5pm social, live stream of the Surgeon General’s keynote address, the Public Health Educators program, free Zumba and spin class made it a powerful and exciting week to be at BUSPH.
