Sustaining Wellbeing for Student Leaders with BU SLIC
Student Wellbeing is pleased to offer this workshop in collaboration with BU Student Leadership & Impact Center on Tuesday, February 24.
Today’s students work incredibly hard, and feel pressure to work even harder. And when they’re not working, there are stressors that demand a different kind of work. But here’s the thing: we know that when students feel better, they perform better. To perform at full potential, students need to be able to occasionally step back, see the big picture, and sometimes try doing things differently.
Student Wellbeing is a campus-wide initiative to support students’ health and wellbeing during their time at BU. We believe that everyone deserves to feel good and that how students feel matters. Our collective goal — as administrators, faculty, and staff — is to inspire our students to feel fulfilled each day, despite the ups and downs of life on campus.
Boston University offers hundreds of programs, services, events, and learning opportunities to support all dimensions of your wellbeing. The question is, "How do I find all these resources? Where do I look?" This list of campus resources, filtered by type of wellbeing you are looking to support, is the perfect place to start.
The BU Food Pantry is a resource available to provide groceries to students that are experiencing episodic food insecurity. After filling out our online order form, we can provide some basic groceries and also information about various resources in a community which are available to you.
Do you have a great idea for an event or program to create and/or support student wellbeing on campus? Partner with Student Wellbeing for ideas, funding materials, and more.
Did you know that your overall wellbeing is made up of many parts? Explore the seven dimensions, plus core needs, of your wellbeing and find campus resources to support you in these areas.
Dozens of daily campus events can help promote and support your wellbeing. Grab a friend and attend something new!
