Week of Wellness provides faculty and staff with useful tools

Members of the Rice community joined members of the administration for a walk along Loop Road and Alumni Drive as part of the Week of Wellness. The weeklong event also featured topics ranging from mental health to financial health, along with health screenings and flu shots Oct. 17-21. The event also showcased the many resources available to employees through Rice’s wellness partners, including HealthFitness. Even though the week is over, it’s still not too late to get a flu shot. Shots will available Nov. 1 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Rice University Police Station and Nov. 3 and 4 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Farnsworth Pavilion. No appointment is necessary for flu shots.
