Who are the Campus Well-being Educators?

Campus Well-being Educators (CWEs) are NDSU students who aim to promote healthy lifestyle choices through peer-led education, programming, and collaborating with our campus community. CWEs become trained in how to plan and and implement programs related to various health and well-being topics, including: mental health, nutrition, sleep hygiene, environmental health, and alcohol/nicotine use.

Our student’s support the goals of Health Promotion by:

  • PROMOTING and ADVOCATING for a campus of health and wellbeing
  • PROVIDING learning and development opportunities for personal and community health
  • CONNECTING and OPTIMIZING campus and community resources
  • RESEARCHING and ASSESSING student health status and needs

Our students’ outreach is supported by the President’s Council on Campus Well-being.

A glimpse of our 2023-2024 work: 
Each year our CWEs host a Tote bag Painting event. What a great opportunity to learn about environmental health while doing crafts!
This year, our students partnered with SNAP the Stigma, a project focusing on de-stigmatizing and humanizing mental health, for a powerful poster display in the Memorial Union. Visit snapthestigma.com for more information!
Our CWEs spent an afternoon doing a “Letting Go of Anxiety” activity in the Memorial Union in honor of upcoming finals and May being National Mental Health Awareness month.
