The Student Well-being Task Force was charged by Provost Lewis to assess SLU's health and well-being ecosystem for students and develop recommendations to advance a culture of well-being for all students. 

While student mental health often is the most visible aspect of student well-being, the Task Force鈥檚 charge was intentionally broad, including but not limited to mental health. A holistic approach to student well-being is fundamental to the Jesuit charism of cura personalis, as well as to all aspects of student success. Importantly, although our charge focused on student well-being, this work has implications for faculty and staff well-being, as well. Creating a culture of well-being goes beyond individual pursuit of well-being and emphasizes community well-being. 

Ultimately, the Task Force developed this set of recommendations, in collaboration with the campus community, to serve as a Student Well-being Strategic Roadmap for the University. 

Throughout this process, we grounded our work in a set of core assumptions and beliefs. Because these inform the way the recommendations were developed, we offer them here as important foundational context in understanding what is 鈥� and what is not 鈥� in the final recommendations.

We believe that . . . 

• Our Jesuit values offer essential foundations for our pursuit of a culture of well-being. Cultivating meaning and purpose, prioritizing spiritual practice, and serving our communities are just some of the ways in which our Jesuit values enhance our individual and collective well-being.
• Responsibility for student well-being at SLU is a shared responsibility. The University must play its distinctive role in creating a culture of well-being and providing adequate resources to support students holistically, and individuals must take appropriate action to enhance their own well-being.
• The human experience involves struggle and difficulty, and learning involves discomfort. Learning how to respond to and move through these builds the resilience needed for true well-being.
• To advance a culture of well-being at SLU, immediate actions are needed, and shifting our campus culture will take time. It is important to remember that the recommendations offered here are necessary for shifting the culture, but they are not the only actions we need to take. 
• Academic rigor and student well-being are not mutually exclusive. Indeed, there are well-being benefits that come when students strive for 鈥� and reach 鈥� rigorous intellectual and academic goals. There is pleasure in the growth and learning that happen here.
• The recommendations offered here can advance a culture of well-being for all students, and different students will need different kinds of support and community. We have tried to create recommendations that can benefit all SLU students 鈥搃ncluding graduate/professional students, online/nontraditional students 鈥� and to acknowledge the particular needs of students from historically marginalized identities and experiences.

We believe it is important to name these assumptions explicitly. Throughout this process, the Task Force (and University stakeholders) made clear there are a number of tensions inherent in the work of creating a culture of well-being. These include the tensions between individual and institutional responsibility, faculty and student perspectives on academic stressors, and internal and external services and resources. 

Such tensions persist because of the complexity of any university. Our aim throughout has been to acknowledge these tensions and strive for recommendations that can lay the groundwork for continuing education and change over time.

1. Focus on holistic health and well-being (including physical, intellectual, emotional, environmental, spiritual, social, etc.), not just on mental health.
2. Create recommendations that have the potential to benefit all types of students, while also acknowledging that different students have different needs. Here, we thought explicitly about different categories of students (e.g., undergraduate and graduate/professional, in-person and online, residential and non-residential, etc.) and individuals of differing identities, backgrounds, and experiences.
3. Ground recommendations in evidence-based practices, our Jesuit mission, values, and identity, and in our shared commitment to inclusion, equity, justice, and belonging.
4. Balance University responsibility with individual responsibility, and create space for shared ownership of student well-being initiatives.
5. Focus on future-looking, broad/overarching actions that can lead to culture change, rather than on specific solutions to specific problems. Although some recommendations allow us to begin to address challenges identified during the data collection process.
6. Avoid creating 鈥渢o do lists鈥� for specific departments or individuals. This allows us to honor expertise, enact subsidiarity, and respect the importance of context. It does not mean there won鈥檛 be concrete actions for individuals and departments to take in order to advance this work.
7. Lay the groundwork for future working groups that will implement recommended actions, while also leaving space for creativity and innovation. We know there will be a need for working groups to operationalize any accepted recommendations, and we will provide data toolkits for those groups after the Task Force鈥檚 work concludes.
8. Create an expectation of accountability and continuous improvement over time. This work cannot and will not be a one-off endeavor.

Our commitment to student flourishing is embedded throughout the institution and is reflected in our priorities, actions, and communications.
