MACOMB, Ill. — Western Illinois University has partnered with CVS Health and added a new vending machine to campus, now available in the University Union's One Stop Rocky Shop. The self-service kiosk offers a curated selection of over-the-counter medications, personal hygiene products, and everyday health essentials, offering students, faculty/staff, and guests an on-campus resource.

"We are grateful to partner with CVS to bring this new style of vending machine to campus. It is my hope that members of our campus community will utilize this machine to support their personal health and wellness needs. As we continue to look for opportunities across campus to expand access and provide resources, I am thankful we were able to collaborate to make this addition possible," Joseph Roselieb, assistant vice president of student success, said.
