In our commitment to fostering a thriving academic community, we recognize that student well-being is paramount. The First-Year Wellness Experience aims to sustain and enhance the health of our incoming first year students. By seamlessly integrating comprehensive wellness initiatives into the fabric of residential life, we create a supportive environment that spans the entire continuum of student experiences. Regular assessments and continuous quality improvement ensure that our efforts remain effective and responsive to evolving needs.
