Labyrinth Walk

What college student does not feel stressed or overloaded from time to time?  For situations like these, and more, Sullivan University has a great Student Wellness Center.  One opportunity sponsored by the Wellness Center is The Labyrinth Walk, which emphasizes the release of tension.  The Labyrinth provides a relaxing atmosphere to which students may come to unwind.  Historically (over 4000 years old), a labyrinth was a maze-like structure that symbolized the journey of life.  The path into the center of the structure encourages self-reflection.  Then the path leads the participant back out in to the world with a better understanding of self and serenity. 

Labyrinth Walks are held at least once per quarter at Sullivan University, usually around mid-terms.  All students and faculty are welcome to come and take advantage of the relaxing environment, community support, and free refreshments!  A representative from Back, Body, and Beyond Chiropractic is available to accurately measure your level of tension before and after your Labyrinth experience.

Feel free to take advantage of these free services at Sullivan University.  Contact Dr. Renee, Wellness Director, for more information!

Great Fall Weather

It's a great time of year as the weather cools off and the leaves and schedule of sunlight changes, but it also makes it really hard to get out of bed. Now that Sullivan is an attendance taking school, there are only so many times to hit that snooze button. Now many of the teachers understand that life can get hectic and there may be times that we just can't get to class, but all we have to do is email the instructor if there is a good reason for missing class. A sick child, an unexpected work schedule, a medical or family emergency, the instructors will work with you to make sure you don't fall behind.
The further we go into the fall and winter season, the more likely that weather is going to cause some delays or even cancelling of classes, so be sure to sign up for the Dean's Alert System on your Sullivan Portal, it is under the Communications tab and the Emergency and Weather link. You can get text messages or voicemails to let you know if classes are cancelled, rather than driving to the campus.

Have a safe and happy quarter!
