*Meningococcal Meningitis is a rare but potentially dangerous illness.
Although the risk of contracting this disease is low for the general population,
there is a greater potential risk of outbreaks for college-aged students due to
a prevalence of risk factors that are often part of campus life. These
risk factors include residence hall living, active and passive smoking, bar
patronage, and alcohol consumption. As a preventative measure, Student
Health Services recommends students check with their health care providers for
further information about available vaccines or contact us at (870) 460-1051.
