STUDENT SUPPORT & WELLNESS

OUR MANDATE

The Student Support department falls under the Office of the Dean of Students. The department’s function is concerned with the wellness of the students and staff members. Wellness is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a healthy fulfilling life, free from illness and a dynamic process of change and growth. Student and staff wellness is very important because if they are not well it can affect their health and academic performance. Therefore, it is important for everyone to achieve optimal wellness in order to subdue stress, reduce the risk of illness and ensure positive interactions.
