In accordance with its mission, the Department of Residence Life has established special environments to provide additional living options for students and enhance their learning opportunities. These communities are created in collaboration with other campus Departments.
The Wellness Community is a living environment in which students and staff are focused on all dimensions of wellness. Students living in the community choose a balanced and healthy lifestyle and seek to enhance it by supporting each other in making healthy choices. Students are committed to remaining substance-free (alcohol, illegal drugs, and tobacco) both on and off campus. Community members and staff provide opportunities for mutual support and education in the seven dimensions of wellness. The Wellness Community is a collaborative effort with the Wallman Wellness Center and is located on the eighth and ninth floors of Seim Hall.
Students who want to be part of the Wellness Community must agree to and complete a Wellness Community contract. You may dowload the contract by clicking on the following link:
