Welcome back, Warhawks! We are so thrilled to have you all back on campus! As your Interpersonal Violence Prevention Educator, I want to extend a warm welcome and a heartfelt reminder: Be safe, be mindful, always respect one another on campus, and always know, “You are not alone, I am here for you, Always."

Keep an eye on Connect2, the UHCS Website, and our social media pages () for more information regarding our upcoming Red Zone programming! We invite you to join us in the UC every Thursday from 10 AM - 2 PM to explore different Red Zone Topics. Programming will also include weekly Nitecap chat workshops for a deeper dive into key topics on Mondays and/or Thursdays at 5PM starting September 25th and our Courageous Conversations Men's Talk workshop series every Tuesday at 5:00 PM. Be sure to stop by and say hi! Hope to see you there!

Let's make this a semester of safety, respect, and proactive community care!

Sharing a post from The City of Whitewater. We are so excited that they are doing this as medical waste can be extremely challenging to get rid of properly.

Just a friendly reminder that the Canadian Wildfires continue to produce poor air quality. Make sure to know your limits and your triggers, especially those with Asthma or any type of lung disease.

Here is a great chart put out by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services.

Your weather app typically will tell you what your Air Quality Index is for the day as well.

We are Sooooo excited to share with you, that we have added a Health and Wellness vending machine into Wells Dorm.

We want to make sure that you have access to items that are helpful for self-care/mild illness and first aid.

Check it out when your back on campus in a few weeks. Look for it by all the other vending machines!

Team Heart Throbs Week 6 Warhawk in Motion Step count was 501, 766. We are currently in 3rd place for the competition. Yay team!

We Rocked this week! We walked, we ran, we golfed, we cleaned, we hiked, we went to concerts and danced!

Hopefully we are inspiring you to get up and move!

Step Count from UWW's Team Heart Throb from Week 3 is.............435, 271! 🤯 We've been running around like Cindy M on a mission this last week (literally, 😂) and found a gazillion ways to keep active and move our bodies. Did you know swimming for 30 minutes is like walking 8,250 steps, but way more fun? 🏊‍♀️ So many benefits for the body and mind being active! It's like a party in your brain - dopamine, serotonin, and endorphins are like the ultimate party squad, making you feel happier and more positive! 🎉

Don't forget were here for your healthcare needs ALL summer long

UHCS is kicking off the summer months with Warhawk in Motion. A wellness event to encourage activity. We report our weekly steps as a team and compete against other teams on campus. We want you to hold us accountable. Each week we will post our step counts and some of the activities we did throughout the week that encourage a healthy body and a healthy heart.

Our team: The Heart Throbs ❤️ (get it) 🤣
