鈥淓ndurance in the Face of Uncertainty鈥� is the theme of this year鈥檚 Health and Wellness Summit at the 麻豆视频. Given that it is 2020, the focus could hardly be timelier.
The third annual wellness summit will happen Oct. 6, 7 and 8 (Tuesday through Thursday) and is a virtual event. Online registration is required. The event is organized and sponsored by CU Boulder鈥檚 Health and Wellness Services.
The summit has three objectives:
- To offer the opportunity to learn about support and health and wellness resources available to CU Boulder students, faculty and staff.
- To ensure that attendees leave each session with skills they have learned and tips that they can apply.
- To share information about available services, holistic approaches to health听and research put into practice.
On each of the three days, expert presentations, many of them from the College of Arts and Sciences, will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., and a virtual expo will be held each day from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
