Colorado College\u2019s commitment to health and wellness didn\u2019t begin with a new program or a strategic plan. It began with students asking the College to do more.<\/p>\n

In the aftermath of student deaths during the pandemic, students called for changes that would better support the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of the campus community. Their advocacy helped spark what has become the Health and Wellness Initiative, a broad effort focused on helping students, faculty, and staff build healthier, more balanced lives. <\/p>\n
