Environmental Wellness

Environmental Wellness inspires us to live in a way that is respectful of our surroundings, encourages us to live in harmony with the Earth by taking action to protect it, and promotes interaction with nature and your personal environment. Outdoor Adventures, which is housed in the Department of Recreation and Wellness, offers plenty of opportunities to explore nature through trips and excursions in both the Fall and Spring semesters. Try something new! Learn how Environmental Wellness connects with the other Dimensions of Wellness to bring balance into your life so that you can thrive, flourish and reach your goals.
