Nominate a Dimension Champion today! Nominate here.
Nominees within each dimension elevate our community through example and, often, direct guidance – which gives us real-life examples to strive toward and learn. Nominate a faculty or staff member today who demonstrates leadership and commitment to individual or campus-wide wellbeing across one of the eight dimensions of wellbeing: emotional, environmental, financial, intellectual, occupational, physical, social, and spiritual.
Nominations will close Monday, April 3, at 5:00 pm.
