The purpose of the Wellness Committee is to attend to the socioemotional needs of the Psychological Sciences Department by encouraging a balance of personal and professional life. Events and resources seek to target social, mental, physical, and financial wellbeing with the purpose of helping students, faculty, and staff have a healthy and enjoyable experience at CWRU. We have seen a marked improvement in student engagement, department integration, and morale since this committee was established in 2017.

Examples of successful events include a beginning-of-the-year annual trivia night with personalized questions, food, and prizes, intramural sports throughout the year, and end-of-year department parties. Your donations will directly support the efforts of graduate students and faculty to continue and further develop wellness programming. Should you have any questions about the committee’s efforts, please don’t hesitate to email us at cwruwellness@gmail.com.
