Colleges Rethink Strategies to Enhance Student Well-Being
Colleges and universities are reevaluating their approaches to student well-being amid rising mental health needs and loneliness among students. Zoe Ragouzeos, vice president for student mental health and well-being at New York University, discusses the shift from reactive mental health services to proactive strategies that integrate well-being into the campus experience. Institutions are exploring ways to create environments where students can thrive, rather than just persist. This includes partnerships with career services to address stress management and emotional regulation, as well as initiatives to foster face-to-face interactions among students.
