As of Monday, American higher education was not feeling a direct impact from the worries internationally about swine flu -- but colleges are preparing and trying to educate students about risks. Yale University [1] sent this information to all students, urging them to seek medical attention if they experience any flu-like symptoms. LeMoyne College has stockpiled Tylenol and face masks, but has not experienced any outbreak, News 9 [2]reported. At the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, more students than normal are seeking treatment for the flu, and officials attribute the increase to worries about swine flu, but no cases have turned up, the Associated Press [3] reported. The American College Health Association [4] has posted links to relevant information for college officials.
