TRACK 3: Whole Student
When: Thursday, March 6 | 3:30 p.m.-4:45 p.m. EST
Mental health crises among college students are at an all-time high, yet despite increased spending on wellness programs, many institutions struggle to see meaningful improvements. Are universities investing in the right solutions, or are they simply checking a box? This session will cut through the noise, exposing what’s not working and sharing innovative, data-backed approaches that make a real impact. Panelists will share case studies of universities that have successfully improved student well-being, and attendees will leave with concrete, scalable strategies they can implement on their own campuses.
