Intersections: The RIT Podcast, Ep. 30: Wellness on today’s college campus is nothing like the gym classes students used to be required to take. Michelle Schrouder, director of Wellness Education, talks with student Richa Khanolkar about how the wellness options of today – everything from badminton to yoga, from managing your stress to managing your finances – is helping students learn new skills, make friends and have fun.

RIT requires all undergraduates on its Rochester campus to complete two wellness courses before they can graduate. There are more than 180 wellness course options, and the goal is for students to appreciate a healthy lifestyle that will last long after they graduate.
