In the July/August 2020 issue of Athletic Business Magazine, writer Michael Popke catches up with three NIRSA members to see how colleges and universities around the country have introduced a variety of virtual wellness programming in an effort to keep campus communities together even when their members are apart.
Scott Flickinger, Director, Intramural Sports and Noyes Community Rec Center at Cornell University, Mila Padgett, Director of Campus Recreation and Wellness at the University of South Carolina Aiken, and Colin Timm, Assistant Director, Campus Recreation and Facility Development at the University of Ottawa discuss how their campuses have pivoted quickly to help ease students’ sudden transition from campus life to staying at home.
