We are excited to extend a warm and inclusive invitation to "Welcoming you to Wellness" – a unique orientation event designed exclusively for our LGBTQ+ students. At the Wellness Center, we believe in the power of fitness to uplift and unify, and we are committed to providing a space where every member of our community feels comfortable, empowered, and supported. Scheduled on a Sunday morning before building opens, our goal is to help students who don't normally use the facility become more comfortable and confident with the offerings. This one-hour event includes a building tour, orientation, opportunity to try out a few machines, and Q&A.

The event is FREE for all students and members, but pre-registration is requested.

Date: April 21

Time: 10:00 a.m.

Cost: FREE
