The Health Education Prize is awarded annually by
WesWELL to the graduating senior who best exemplifies the office's
mission:
It is the mission of
WesWELL, the Office of Health Education to promote mindfulness and
responsibility in all areas of health and wellness in order to prevent
disease, injury and other health problems. We encourage good health of
mind, body and spirit by helping members of the Wesleyan community,
particularly students, connect with resources and gain knowledge that
will aid in the enhancement of their well-being, encourage
self-discovery, and support their intellectual proficiency and academic
success.
The student who is chosen for this prize will have
demonstrated a strong commitment to enhancing health promotion efforts
at Wesleyan, has sought to improve the health and well-being of the
Wesleyan community, and served as a positive role model to their peers
at Wesleyan and beyond. Nominees must be
graduating in the current academic year (either December or May). The
recipient is awarded a $100.00 by WesWELL.
Nomination Process
Nominations for the Health Education Prize will be accepted each
spring via a form linked on this page.
The prize recipient will be selected by the WesWELL staff, then announced at the annual Cardinal
Community Awards ceremony and honored at the Academic Scholarships, Fellowship and
Prizes reception, typically held in late April or early May.
