Why Base Campus?
Why Base Campus? Well, it’s based on the idea of a Base Camp. That’s your home base, your safety zone, your spot to regroup and recharge. Base Campus is where you can come to take a break, learn about yourself, and discover a healthier you. So you can look at it as your Base Campus (because you are a student) or Base CampUS (because this is something we can all use!)
College Students are distressed now more than ever and this has only been exacerbated by the pandemic.
