Outdoor Adventures allows you to sign up for outdoor trips, take workshops on various survival skills, rent camping and hiking equipment, or kayaks and paddleboards for Eagle Lake. MSU also offers health services. A short walk gives you access to medical and mental healthcare through our Counseling and Health Services. There is no cost for treatment but a health insurance card is required for appointments. The Morehead area is served by a good regional hospital with a Trauma Center.
