After several tragedies during the pandemic, Worcester Polytechnic Institute has invested $10 million in their wellness program.
“This is really a place to just take a breath and pause,” said Paula Fitzpatrick, the Center’s Director.
Together, Fitzpatrick and Charlie Morse, the Dean of Student Wellness, answered a campus-wide call for more leisure space. “We set up a mental health and well-being task force and implementation teams,” said Morse, explaining a detailed effort from students, faculty and staff to take a close look at the stressors on campus and how the institute could address them with priority.
“I’ve been here for many, many years and it was the most difficult, challenging and traumatic year we’ve ever had here, with multiple losses due to suicide,” said Morse.
