Health Promoting University Week
Private Location (sign in to display)
Registration
Details
Being a Health Promoting University means we intentionally create environments—inside and outside the classroom—that support the whole person. This includes focusing on areas such as physical well-being, social connection, sense of purpose, mental well-being, safety, and belonging. Through this campus-wide initiative, we aim to integrate health into all aspects of campus life, policies, and practices.
Throughout the week, we invite the K-State community to engage in events that celebrate well-being and highlight campus resources that support it.
