Mission Statement

Elizabethtown College Student Wellness Advocacy Group (SWAG) are students who serve the College community by promoting awareness of options and services for a healthier lifestyle. We also support and encourage positive, informed choices, believing that a healthier lifestyle now will promote future well-being.

SWAG provides educational opportunities on current health issues for their peers in the residence halls, and in the campus community. This is done through hall programs, outreach programming for Student Health, or in collaboration with another campus group. For more information about how you can work together with SWAG and/or request a program, please contact studentwellness@etown.edu.
