Take the Well-Being Survey
The Well-Being task force in the Division of Student Affairs would like to hear from students on what their sense of well-being is on campus and have created a brief survey that is now available.
"Please let us know how you're doing," said Josette Cline, chair of the Well-being Task Force. "The University of Arkansas and the Division of Student Affairs really want to hear from you, so we are urging all students to tell us about their current state of well-being — what's going well, and what's not going so well. The purpose of this brief survey is to better understand our students' overall health & well-being on campus in order to make data-informed recommendations on how we might improve these areas."
Students can take the Well-Being Survey on the web.
Results will be used to provide recommendations to U of A administrators. Your feedback on your current state of well-being is truly valuable. The survey will close at 11:59 p.m. on Friday, March 1.
