Peer-led health education
Our peer health education efforts are led by the Student Wellness Advisory Board (SWAB), a student group dedicated to promoting holistic health and wellbeing across campus. SWAB Ambassadors facilitate impactful programming centered on three core pillars: Healthy Bodies, Healthy Minds, and Healthy Communities.
We recruit new SWAB Ambassadors every academic year to join our peer leadership team and drive student-centered wellness initiatives.
