Dimensions of Wellness Highlights in 2025

Ohio State embodies a wellness model that focuses on ten dimensions of wellness and provides resources and engagement opportunities that align with these dimensions. 

To align with university wellness calendar planning, the Office of Administration and Planning (A&P) Buckeye Wellness Innovator (BWI) team will highlight one of the ten dimensions of wellness each month to provide opportunities to learn ways to engage with each dimension.

Doing Good

Team members from Ohio State's Department of Public Safety attended the university's Be Kind Food packing event in September. Alongside other Buckeyes, volunteers packed more than 350,000 meals for delivery to locations in Adams, Brown, Franklin, Highland, Hamilton and Montgomery counties. Participants enjoyed sharing their #BuckeyeLove in this high-energy environment through these acts of kindness. Studies have shown that acts of kindness have wellness benefits for all involved.
