Looking Ahead - Recommendations
•
This initiative should be continued with an
expanded focus on different areas of
wellness
•
Increased focus on pursuing grants to obtain
additional funds for specific wellness topics
Foreseeable Roadblocks
•
There are 3 primary barriers
–
Staffing
–
Opportunities and funding for continuing
education to cover a broader range of wellness
topics
–
Potential changes to program delivery since
many of today’s students tend to be digital
natives who don’t participate in more traditional
programming
New points of emphasis
•
There are 2 new points of emphasis that should be included
in this initiative going forward.
1.
There is a strong need for more wide range marijuana
education for ISU students
2.
There needs to be an expansion of nutrition awareness
and food insecurity faced by ISU students
Though not an emphasis for the current Strategic Plan, there
needs to be consideration of student and employee mental
health concerns going into the next iteration of the plan
Missed opportunities
•
None. This initiative has been pretty good
about adapting as the time went on.
Baseline Recommendation
•
Has this initiative been sufficiently integrated
into your operations?
•
Yes.
Opportunities for Collaborations
•
The Wellness Initiative needs to be more closely linked to
retention efforts geared toward freshmen and transfer
students.
–
These efforts should include required alcohol and marijuana
education for all incoming students; sexual violence prevention
geared toward all members of the ISU community, and
expanded marketing of health and wellness related resources at
and around ISU.
•
Recently, Human Resources hired an Employee Wellness
Coordinator to work with faculty and staff. Going forward,
it would benefit wellness efforts on both the student and
faculty/staff sides to develop collaborative efforts.
•
There needs to be increased engagement of Student
Government and other student groups to both partner and
promote wellness initiatives among ISU students.
