Shenandoah University Esports, Ray Dasher Collaborate On New Partnership

SU to use partnership to help create a healthier space in collegiate esports

Shenandoah University’s esports program is proud to announce its newest partnership with fashion innovator and health advocate Ray Dasher.

The new partnership highlights Shenandoah’s commitment to the health and well-being of those in the college esports scene by introducing products to esports athletes that will preserve an important part of their everyday lives: their eyesight. This collaboration will improve the quality of life of Shenandoah student-athletes in esports by providing them with blue light glasses, allowing them to safely look at monitors for extended periods of time.

It’s great to be working with a company like Ray Dasher to help our learners have a healthier experience as part of the esports program at Shenandoah University,” said Joey Gawrysiak, Ph.D., Shenandoah University’s director of esports. “By providing high-quality blue light glasses to all of our student-athletes, we are able to teach them about healthy gaming habits and help them understand the importance of wellness.”

Whether you are an aspiring or current esports professional, we have you covered.”

Gawrysiak added: “We are looking forward to seeing how working with Ray Dasher enhances the wellness of our learners and the impact the partnership has on our competition. We are excited to be able to bring Ray Dasher and their products to our students as we continue to stress the importance of going beyond gaming.”
