Two University of North Georgia students work out in the Recreation Center on the university’s Dahlonega Campus. The university was recently named the 14th fittest in the country by fitness website theactivetimes.com.
The wealth of opportunities to stay fit at the University of North Georgia’s Dahlonega campus has landed the school on a list of fittest colleges in the U.S. The school was ranked 14th on the list of 50 schools by fitness website theactivetimes.com, largely thanks to its military science program and yearly fitness challenge. “It’s kind of hard to not be fit in this area, especially on the Dahlonega campus with all the hiking and camping and kayaking we have up here,” said Sarah Williams, health educator for the Dahlonega campus. “Fitness on campus is really a communitywide effort.”
