A small team at the Centre for Health Care (CHC) served a total of 4,486 female students aged mainly 18 to 22 years throughout the 10-year period. Emphasis was placed on daily clinical and counseling services for students as well as employees, while maintaining an effort to dispel any impression of being regulated. Through efficient utilization of the CHC’s services by target populations, the campus community as a whole was well-motivated so that a large amount of health information became available. Based upon information thus collected and subsequently analyzed, a health grading was worked out for each student. An average of 7％ of the students in each cohort by enrollment years were found to possess some chronic disorders. Anemia and amenorrhoea were the two most consistently observed disorders. In 6 fiscal years out of the 10-year period under study, mental disorders occupied the first rank. The 10-year average of the prevalence rate (per 1,000) was 21.2, 17.8 and 13.2 for hemato\
poietic disorders, mental disorders and amenorrhoea, respectively. Of 314 students with chronic disorders, 61.8％ were discovered during their voluntary visits to the CHC clinic, whereas mass-screening picked up merely 9.9％. Under the given conditions, it is concluded that primary care in the campus community is not only conducive to motivating individual students toward health awareness, but also beneficial for the management of chronic disorders among them.},
