GUEST ROOM | Measuring What Matters in Student Well-being

Cornell Health Director of Strategic Planning and Data Analysis Abigail Dubovi, Ph.D. explores how Cornell measures student distress, flourishing and key well-being indicators through the Student Well-Being Survey, part of the Health Promoting Campus effort. Findings show improvement alongside persistent inequities and highlight how individual, relational and environmental factors shape well-being. When the survey arrives this spring, student participation helps ensure the results reflect lived experience and guide what comes next.
