Discussion:
Smoke-free campus:
Much time was spent discussing
a recent memo about a state meeting
to move toward smoke-free campuses.
It seems that AB Tech and HCC
have recently made the switch
to smoke -free. So, we discussed
whether we thought this initiative
was going to go state wide and
as the Wellness Committee what
we’d like to support for
our campus. We think that state
wide acceptance of banning smoking
on college campuses will come
to pass in the not too distant
future. As the Wellness Committee
we support that move and would
like to start working toward making
this transition at SCC in as compassionate
and inclusive of a way as is possible
for all staff, faculty and students.
I ask all committee members
that were not present at the meeting
to get back with me as soon as
you can with your thoughts on
this.
Eat Smart:
The Eat Smart subcommittee has
arranged for a nutritionist from
WCU to come and discuss eating
organic. Peter Buck is planning
lunch and learn presentation on
changing unhealthy behaviors with
food etc.
We’re also looking to
starting a weight watchers group
at SCC
