The wellness program

"Health is not simply the

absence of sickness."

- Hannah Green

The Program:

For the 2006-2007 school year, the Wellness Living-Learning Community will reside in Centennial Hall.

Students sign a Wellness LLC living contract, signifying that they will make healthy decisions in the six key areas of wellness.

After their first year, Wellness LLC students may choose to live in the brand-new Nelson Hall (if they meet all the necessary requirements). This gorgeous building offers suite-style living options and a special section just for the Wellness LLC. Students will have the option of working in wellness-related internships and service programs for academic credit. Sophomores may also become peer educators in order to fulfill their academic component of the Living and Learning housing option.

The dining halls in Centennial & Nelson Halls offer low-fat food choices as well as nutritional information for all dishes.

Wellness LLC staff plan several off-campus retreats and events for Wellness LLC residents each school year. The goal of these programs is to build camaraderie, inspire learning, and promote teamwork.

Upcoming events include dinners, plays, speakers, workshops, and retreats in the Rocky Mountains.

Past retreats have included the following activities: ropes course, hiking, skiing, white water rafting--all for the promotion of wellness!
