Embracing Wellness at Spellman College

Spellman College's new wellness center was featured by NACUBO's Business Officer magazine in the February 2016 issue.  Spellman vice presidents Robert D. Flanigan and Darnita R. Killian authored the article, "Wellness Center Promotes All Types of Fitness."  Brenda Dalton, Spelman's director of health services and wellness is also quoted in the article noting that data on students supported the new focus.
Flanigan and Killian note that the wellness center is part of a comprehensive strategy after Spellman decided three years ago to discontinue participation in intercollegiate sports.  The college decided that a new center and wellness curriculum, "Embracing Wellness for the Health of It," would reduce sedentary lifestyles.
