Curious what faculty have to say about wellbeing? Tune in as Gankal sits with Dr. Corey McAuliffe on the topic of physical activity and its effects on students’ mental health. The two discuss different barriers students may face as well as ways to overcome them!
Here’s a sneak peak into what the two discuss:
Integrating Movement with Academic Schedules:
1. Many students find it hard to make time for physical activity due to packed schedules.
Can you share some effective strategies for integrating movement into their daily routines
without it feeling burdensome?
Creating Supportive Environments:
2. What role can universities play in creating environments that promote student
well-being? Are there particular policies or campus designs that you believe are
especially beneficial?
Physical Activity and Mental Health:
3. Can you discuss the connection between regular physical activity and its effects on
students’ mental health, stress levels, and academic performance?
