The Role of Community Partnerships Community service programming and faculty interaction are encouraged. The W.E.L.L. program provides many leadership opportunities with a student-run behavior standards committee, a programming committee and many other opportunities for students to voice their opinions and beomce active members in the community. The Role of Research Research plays a large role in the program's assessment and upgrading. Students within the program are compared with a group of non-program participants. Both quantitative and qualitative assessment occurs.
Qualitative assessment includes student, staff and instructor debriefing sessions.
The Role of Interdisciplinary Studies Materials for the Healthy Living course are drawn from several different disciplines to ensure a well-rounded wellness approach is taught. How Diversity Issues are Addressed in the Program and in Courses RA programming enhances the recognition, tolerance and acceptance of diversity. Because personal wellness crosses genders, ethnicities, races, etc., there is a diverse mixture in the student population. However, due to the physical layout of the facility, there are approximately 10 more men's spaces than women's spaces in the program.
