Get Outside
Spending time outdoors is good for your health, and a short walk can even help you focus and be more productive.
Fortunately, both buildings that are home to Beaver College of Health Sciences feature green spaces and outdoor recreation opportunities nearby.
Leon Levine Hall of Health Sciences is located adjacent to Boone's Greenway Trail which features a series of outdoor trails ideal for a quick walk and green space for outdoor activities such as frisbee or cornhole. The Holmes Convocation Center is located near Durham Park and other trails and green spaces on App State Boone's campus.
Day Use Lockers
Faculty, staff, and students are welcome to use lockers located on the first floor of Levine to store their belongings. Just remember to bring a lock.
