About

The Wellness Office supports the mission of Smith College by integrating innovative wellness interventions into the academic, residential, and extracurricular realms of students’ lives. We interpret “life of distinction,” the life for which we are preparing students, as a life evolved through intentionality, respect for self and others, and service to the community and the world. The Office provides resources directly to students and to every office, department, and committee at Smith to maximize students’ access to the tools they will need to lead such a life. A newly established office, we aim to be a model for wellness promotion at peer institutions.

The Wellness Office Blog’s goal is to keep Smith students informed about recent developments in health and wellness related to college health. Opinion will probably sneak in, but remember no individual’s opinion is the opinion of the College.
