STAYING HYDRATED It’s important to realize when you arrive in Prescott, Arizona that your body will demand more water than what you might be used to. Between the low humidity and mile-high altitude, new arrivals can become dehydrated quickly, especially on move-in day. As you are running back and forth between your vehicle and your residence hall room, be sure to take time to stop and drink plenty of water. Watch for signs of dehydration including fatigue, dizziness, headache and nausea. Adopt the Arizona lifestyle of carrying a water bottle with you everywhere you go. Drinking fountains with bottle filling stations are located throughout campus.
