Other Resources & Services

Action for Happiness

Action for Happiness is a movement of people committed to building a happier and more caring society. People who want to see a fundamentally different way of life — where people care less about what they can get just for themselves and more about the happiness of others.

Each month, they create action calendars that are packed with actions you can take to help create a happier and kinder world. Counseling and Wellness Services staff will highlight these action calendars to facilitate a happier and kinder state of being for our campus community.

Relaxation Room

The Relaxation Room, located in the Siek Campus Center (Suite 260) provides students with a quiet space to engage in self-care and coping activities including bibliotherapy, listening to music, meditations, etc.
