Residential Life Wellness Assistants

Promoting wellness

Wellness Assistants (WA) help residential students learn information and gain life skills that will empower them to make helpful decisions about their health, well-being and safety by incorporating the wellness wheel, which includes eight wellness components: Emotional, Environmental, Financial, Intellectual, Occupational, Physical, Spiritual and Social. WAs help students by:

  • Working collaboratively with Residence Life staff and other campus stakeholders to promote student and campus health and well-being
  • Planning and implementing educational programming and awareness campaigns 
  • Helping residents understand restrictions around fire safety from an education-based approach

We work with a new group of interns every year.
