SOCIAL
I was extremely shy in high school and didn’t have many friends. Once I started going to Central I knew that I wanted to make friends and go outside my comfort zone. I would introduce myself to people who had their doors open and go to different events hosted by Central. This means so much to me because I was able to make great friends, gain connections and become the person I am today. - Kellie Deschambault, fourth year
Social Wellness refers to the relationships we have and how we interact with others. Our relationships can offer support during difficult times. Social wellness involves building healthy, nurturing and supportive relationships as well as fostering a genuine connection with those around you.

From the moment you start this fall quarter, you’ll be met with a welcoming university community with opportunities to engage with others outside the classroom. Whether in-person or virtual, the Office of Student Involvement provides a diverse array of programs and learning opportunities through active commitment to these CORE values: Connection. Making a connection to where you live and learn as well as a sense of belonging is an important aspect of being a Wildcat. Opportunity. Students will have opportunities with others whose personalities, beliefs, and cultures, are different from their own. Reflection. Inquiry and critical thinking play an important role in college life, and help students to make meaning of their experiences. Empowerment. Students can take ownership and invest in creating spaces welcoming to all, create community and be catalysts for change.
